Tottenham set to agree Wembley deal

Tottenham Hotspur are close to agreeing a deal to play their European games at Wembley Stadium from next season, according to The Sun.

The North London club are expected to move into a new 61,000-seater stadium, which will be under construction, in 2018.

Spurs will continue to play their league games during next season at White Hart Lane, but plan to move out of their current stadium in 2017, when the adjacent venue is being completed.

It is likely that Spurs will play their Champions League fixtures at The FA's headquarters next season.

They have been involved in discussions to play their league games at Wembley for the 2017-18 season but face competition from Chelsea, who are also keen to hire Wembley for three years while they redevelop Stamford Bridge.
