    <span class="titolo">Basketball Star Plays Down Talk Of Spurs Bid</span></p>

    <span class="sommario">Basketball star Steve Nash has played down reports that he could lead a consortium to buy Premeirship outfit Tottenham.</span></p>

    Nash, who plays forthe Phoenix Suns, is a well-known lifelong Spurs fans and his family hail from North London, but suggestions that he hopes to own the club seem wide of the mark, at least at this stage.</p>

    &ldquo;I would love to own Spurs but I don&rsquo;t have a spare &pound;300 million in my back pocket so it&rsquo;s not going to happen,&rdquo; said the 33-year-old. &ldquo;I have a friendship with the Spurs sporting director, Damien Comolli, and, through him, have had the chance to meet Daniel (Levy).</p>

    &ldquo;When my career is over, I would love to think there might be the chance of being involved with the club in some capacity. I have a lot of experience in many aspects of professional sports, so who knows? I would be excited and proud if that could ever happen.&rdquo;</p>

    Tottenham have in recentdays embarked in a new era having sacked manager MartinJol and appointed JuandeRamos fromSevilla,butthere has been reports that the club'sowners are keeping an eye on potential takeovers as theydeem thecurrent price to be right.</p>
