Tottenham will reportedly relocate to their new stadium in February.
Christian Eriksen has been quoted by The Sun as saying that he and the rest of the Tottenham Hotspur squad are unsure if they will relocate to their new stadium this season.
The Independent claimed last month that Spurs were to try and move from Wembley to the new ground in February, after missing move-in dates in September and indeed this month.
The report also claims that Spurs have gone £237million over their projected £400million budget, with complications seeing costs spiral out of control. However, the pitch is laid and is nearly ready, but there are still issues to be ironed out.
Eriksen, who is currently with Denmark ahead of their trip to Wales in the UEFA Nations League, said that the Spurs squad are unsure if they will be moving into their new home this season – and described Wembley as a “second home”.
“I don’t know if we are going to stay at Wembley for the rest of the season,” Eriksen said. “But these things take time and we all want to make sure it is done perfectly. It will be an amazing place, so we need it to be finished properly.
“Everyone wants to be in the new stadium but we can’t help put up bricks. So we need to leave it to professionals and let them get on with their job. We need to do ours and concentrate on football. I can’t see it impacting our season.”
Despite remaining at Wembley, Spurs have got off to an excellent start in the Premier League, winning nine of their 12 league outings. Spurs have also saved their Champions League campaign – for the time being, with a win over PSV.
The stadium remains a talking point among fans, but former chairman Lord Alan Sugar posted a video earlier this week that got fans excited. It remains to be seen when Spurs will finally move in.
