Tottenham to play at Wembley next season and demolish White Hart Lane

Tottenham Hotspur will play all of their home games at Wembley Stadium in the 2017-18 season during the construction of their new stadium, the club announced on Friday.

Spurs had to decide by Monday whether they would use the national stadium for all home league and cup matches and have chosen to accept their option.

Wembley will serve as the club's base while White Hart Lane is demolished and their new £800 million stadium is built.

The decision means that Sunday's match against Arsenal will be the last North London derby to be held at White Hart Lane, Tottenham's home since 1899.
