Our new stadium will be one of the best in Europe, there is no doubt about that, and the Tottenham management has been doing its best to showcase just what the finished product would look like come the start of next season.
The club have shared a number of updates on Twitter and they have done it again with a series of tweets highlighting just what the roof would look like and how exactly the roof would be lifted above the impressive stadium.
The roof lift has begun at #SpursNewStadium! 🏟️

Another tweet highlighted that we would be using 54 columns to support the LED floodlights.

The final product does look rather incredible, to be honest, and hopefully, we will have the stadium ready in time for the start of the new season. The only thing that the fans would need to ensure is the White Hart Lane atmosphere being transferred to our new stadium.
That would provide the players with a huge lift and would also create the perfect base for a lot of success, with Mauricio Pochettino at the helm for years to come.
6⃣: Once in its final position, the cables are pinned to the upper and lower tension ring clamps, providing a strong roof support structure. The floodlights and roof finish can then be installed. #SpursNewStadium pic.twitter.com/ju1mr8iQZr
