Game on 13 January will now be played at Wembley as club waits on progress report from contractors

Spurs has said that its new stadium will not be ready for its game against Manchester United in the middle of next month – with the club still saying it doesn’t know when the ground will open.

In an update on the progress of the 62,000-seat ground, being built by Mace, the club said the game against United was now being switched to its temporary home of Wembley stadium.

The club had ringed the fixture as its opening game at the stadium after the original inaugural match, against Liverpool on 15 September, had to be put back because of safety issues.
