Tottenham fans may need to travel an extra FIFTY miles to watch their team play during the time their new stadium is built - as the club face at least two years playing in Milton Keynes.
Mail Online claims that Spurs are considering Stadium:MK as their temporary home ground as their new stadium is built on the grounds where White Hart Lane currently stands. Spurs' stadium design will not be able to be completed in phases, so they will need to move away entirely before coming back to their new look home.
The report claims it could be even longer than two seasons that Spurs could be ousted from the lane. Stadium:MK, home to League One franchise MK Dons, holds just over 30,000 supporters.
Tottenham officials recently admitted they would have to move out for a season when they receive the go-ahead to start building, but it now looks as though the issue will be a problem for a longer length of time. As it stands, Tottenham do not have a home stadium from the start of the 2017/18 season and will need to play their matches somewhere else.
Work on the new ground has been delayed for several months after a local business refused to move to make way for the development, but Spurs will be hoping to get the green light to move ahead with plans after the results of a High Court case in January.
