Tottenham have moved their upcoming Premier League fixtures against Liverpool and Cardiff to Wembley Stadium following safety concerns with their brand new arena.

Five of Spurs' first seven matches were scheduled to played away from home. But now the home fixtures against Liverpool (September 15) and Cardiff (October 6) have been moved after the club confirmed recent testing showed "critical safety system" issues with their new stadium.

Spurs chairman Daniel Levy said: "We know this will be disappointing for all our season tickets holders, premium members and our fans worldwide.

"We appreciate the support our partner the NFL has shown since the extent of this issue became evident today.

"At the start of the project we asked for your support during what we knew would be a complex and challenging build and now we ask for your continued patience and forbearance."
