Tottenham Hotspur's majority owners ENIC have invested an extra 100 million pounds ($133.87 million) into the club, the Premier League side said on Thursday, as they aim to drive "long-term sporting success".

The capital injection comes a month after Spurs said they received and rejected two preliminary expressions of interest for a possible takeover and insisted the North London club are not for sale.

Speculation about a possible change of ownership had increased since executive chairman Daniel Levy stepped down after almost 25 years in the post.

"We are pleased to announce that our majority shareholder, the Lewis family trust, has, through ENIC Sports & Development Holdings Ltd ("ENIC"), injected £100 million of new capital into the club," Spurs said in a statement.
