Drone footage above new Tottenham stadium shows impressive progress at White Hart Lane

Tottenham Hotspur used footage captured by a drone on Wednesday to show off the impressive progress their new stadium project is making.

More glass exterior panels were recently added to the outside of the club's new 62,000-seat stadium, built on the site of their former White Hart Lane home.

The latest footage shows the new stadium dominating the landscape in Tottenham, with the huge modern-looking structure surrounded by many much older buildings, including homes.

As well as highlighting just how much progress has been made since Spurs vacated White Hart Lane in May 2017 the pictures also show how much work is left to be done in order to get the stadium ready on time.

Spurs want to be able to use the ground at the start of the 2018-19 Premier League season, although they will likely need to play their first few games away from home as much of the panelling is yet to be completed and cranes still surround the ground.

However, with the stands complete — seats are beginning to be installed — and the chassis of the stadium and roof in place, it is already clear what an impressive and imposing arena Tottenham's new home will become.

The recent installation of glass adds to other cosmetic touches to the ground's exterior, with metal cladding around part of the stadium, and tiling beginning to be applied to the roof.

Work is going on 24/7 in order to get the ambitious stadium completed for next season, with other features set to include LED lighting on the outside walls and a retractable pitch for NFL fixtures.

The first NFL game will take place on October 14 when the Seattle Seahawks play the Oakland Raiders. It is not yet known when the first football match will be played there.

Watching Spurs at their new stadium won't be cheap, with the cheapest season ticket costing £795 for adults and the most expensive £1,995 — the costliest anywhere in the Premier League.
