Tottenham are enjoying one of their best seasons in years but are set to say goodbye to White Hart Lane at the end of the campaign. Mauricio Pochettino’s men will be moving to a new stadium coming up in place of the Lane and the players and staff took part in one final photo at the stadium.
The “class of 2017” constitutes of over 450 members and they all took their place on the pitch of the stadium.

The final game of the iconic Lane would be against Manchester United, which takes place at the weekend and Spurs know they still have a very minute chance of winning the league, should Chelsea lose their remaining games.
Tottenham even shared images of the staff and the team when they clinched their first ever top-flight championship in 1951 with manager Arthur Rowe leading them to the title.

It will be an emotional game against Manchester United, that is a guarantee, and the perfect manner to celebrate would be a thumping victory against the Red Devils.
