The construction of Tottenham's new stadium has reached another milestone after all four stands were joined up.

The final spaces between the stands were closed this week as the club prepare to install the compression ring - a steel ring at the top of the structure - on which the roof will be supported.

Spurs announced the news by revealing more images of the impressive building process, which is expected to be completed in time for the club to move in for the 2018-19 Premier League season.
