Ex Tottenham stars will face Inter in an exhibition match.

STADIO GIUSEPPE MEAZZA, MILAN, ITALY - 2018

A number of Tottenham Hotspur’s ex-players will be reunited for a test event at the club’s new stadium on March 30.

Jurgen Klinsmann and Robbie Keane are among the high profile names who will be in action against Inter Milan.

Inter are sending some top players too, with Francisco Toldo, Javier Zanetti and Dejan Stankovic set to feature.

One player who will also play, who is less well known is former Inter defender Fabio Galante.

Galante made 55 appearances for Inter between 1996 and 1999.

Fabio Galante attends the Serie A match between FC Internazionale and AC Milan at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza on October 21, 2018 in Milan, Italy.

He told Tuttomercatoweb he is excited to play at Tottenham’s new ground.

He said: “It will be a strong emotion to inaugurate a great stadium and play again alongside absolute champions.”

A crowd of 45,000 is expected at the ground. Spurs host Crystal Palace in the Premier League days later on April 3.

Marco Materazzi, Youri Djourkaeff and Hernan Crespo are among the Inter players also expected to be in action for the Italians.
