Paul Gascoigne has made a public plea via Twitter to be involved in the opening of Tottenham Hotspur’s new stadium.

Spurs are hosting a legends match at the new ground on March 30 as one of their required test events.

The club have already announced more than a dozen ex players who will feature including Jurgen Klinsmann and Robbie Keane.

Others including Neil Sullivan and Chris Perry are less high profile.

One player conspicuous by his absence so far is ex Spurs and England midfielder Paul Gascoigne, a bona fide club icon.

Yet ‘Gazza’ says so far he has received no invite.

Gascoigne has had his fair share of off field problems and has made mistakes over the past year.

Despite this, having him involved will be a crowd pleaser and he is part of Tottenham’s history.

If Spurs do not invite him, they will not be able to take it back.

Do you think Gazza should play a part in the legends match?
