Tottenham want fans to buy 10-year tickets at £50,000 a pop

Tottenham hope to part fund their new stadium development plans by asking supporters to pay upfront for premium seat packages costing as much as £53,000 over 10 years.

The Telegraph says the club wrote to supporters on Tuesday asking them to take part in a survey designed to determine the level of demand for premium packages including food and parking options.

The survey indicates that the club is pursuing the Northumberland Park development adjacent to White Hart Lane in parallel with its legal challenge to the loss of the Olympic Stadium bid to West Ham.

It also reveals the club's strategy for paying for a stadium development that as recently as January was described as unaffordable by chairman Daniel Levy.

The survey offers 39 different seating and hospitality packages in a tier of premium seating that appears similar to the Club Wembley middle tier at the national stadium that effectively bankrolls the ground through the sale of 10-year packages.

Spurs appear to be adopting a similar model, asking supporters to pay as much as half of the fees upfront to help repay loans incurred in stadium construction.
