It was hoped the clash would take place at the new White Hart Lane, but it will not be ready in time.

Spurs chairman Daniel Levy said: "I wish I was able to confirm an exact opening date and fixture.

"However, in light of factors completely outside of our control, contractors missing deadlines and possible future unforeseen issues, we are naturally being cautious in respect of our timetable for our test events and official opening game.

"We have taken the decision to confirm that all home games will be played at Wembley Stadium up to and including the game against Wolverhampton Wanderers on 29 December.

"We know the continued delay is a source of immense disappointment to everyone and I can only continue to apologise for this - it is a sentiment felt by all of us."
