Tottenham stadium name: Ground called Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as naming rights search continues

Tottenham’s new stadium will be known as the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium with no naming-rights deal in place for next season.

Spurs have been in talks with a number of parties over a deal to name their new 62,062-seater venue but at a recent meeting with the Tottenham Hotspur Supporters’ Trust, club chairman Daniel Levy confirmed there is no deal in place as of yet.

Sportswear giant Nike are not in the running with no talks taking place between them and the Premier League side, minutes from the meeting noted.

Tottenham have confirmed at previous meetings that until a partner is found, the stadium will be referred to as the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium – rather than White Hart Lane.

The move sees Tottenham follow the example of Juventus, whose home was known as ‘Juventus Stadium’ for six years before they agreed a sponsorship deal with financial services giant Allianz in 2017.

Spurs have confirmed their first game at the new ground will be against Crystal Palace on Wednesday April 3, following two test events in March.
