London: Tottenham Hotspur will play their European fixtures at Wembley Stadium next season, the club and the Football Association announced Saturday.
The 2016/17 season will be the last Spurs spend at their White Hart Lane home in London, with work on a new purpose-built £400 million ($585 million, Dh2.15 billion) home close to their existing ground having already started. That means Tottenham will need a venue with increased capacity for their European fixtures having qualified for the Champions League with Wembley, not far from their current north London base, an ideal option. The FA have also given Tottenham the option to play at Wembley, England’s national stadium, for the entire 2017-18 season.
