Google is in advanced talks with the English Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur FC, as reported by The Athletic (opens in new tab), for a potential megabucks deal that will see the London side’s new and advanced stadium named after the internet behemoth.

The stadium opened in 2019, with Spurs chairman Daniel Levy saying at the time the club was interested in securing a naming rights deal for “the right money”. And of course if there’s one thing Google isn’t short of, it’s cash.
