Wembley and Dublin's Aviva Stadium have been used previously but this time around they aren't available. With Liverpool also unable to use Cardiff's Millennium Stadium, Tottenham’s new home emerged as an option with Napoli likely to provide the opposition.

Liverpool's pre-season schedule will retain the same format which has proved successful during Klopp's reign.
They will have a number of local away friendlies in the North West in early July before flying to America for an eight-day tour .
The Reds will take on Borussia Dortmund in Indiana (July 19), Sevilla in Boston (July 21) and Sporting Lisbon in New York (July 24).
On their return from the States, Klopp will take his players to a week-long training camp in Europe.
Then they will have the game in London and one at Anfield as well as potentially being involved in the Community Shield if they are crowned Premier League champions.
