Tottenham must inform the Football Association by the end of March whether they intend to play Premier League football at Wembley Stadium next season.

The north London club are pressing ahead with plans to stage ‘home’ league matches at the national stadium in 2017-18, before moving into their new 61,000-seat ground for the 2018-19 campaign.

Standard Sport can reveal that Tottenham have a little more than two months remaining before they need to activate their option to play at the 90,000-capacity ground. Tottenham are said to be relaxed about the deadline and remain focused on Wembley for next season.

Though the Premier League set no formal date for clubs to confirm a venue for home fixtures, they expect them to do so several months before the start of a new season.

Tottenham say their stadium project, costing about £750million, is on track. Yet faced with such a complex initiative, the club believe it would be rash to commit completely to anything until they can be 100 per cent certain of their timetable.

They have already held meetings with FA officials about media access and player facilities for next season.

That means 2016-17 will almost certainly be the last at White Hart Lane. Though there has been little fanfare as yet, Spurs say their situation is different from those of Arsenal and West Ham.

Whereas those clubs were relocating from Highbury and Upton Park respectively, Spurs are moving only a stone’s throw from White Hart Lane – staying in the area rather than leaving. Nevertheless, club staff have been working on celebrations for the final year at their current home. More will be known about these once the picture becomes clearer with Wembley.
