Spurs legends set to play at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

Confirmed players for the game include; Ledley King, Aaron Lennon, Teddy Sheringham, Michael Dawson, Sandro, and Heurelho Gomes, with the rest of the players set to take part to be announced in due course.

Fans have given their opinion on who they would also like to see involved, with Mousa Dembele and Gareth Bale amongst the most popular of suggestions. Some fans will remember back in January of 2017, during the finals season at White Hart Lane, that he could not wait to play at the new stadium.

In the end, due to all of the delays in moving, he was not able to - as he was sold to Guangzhou Evergrande, three months before the opening game at home to Crystal Palace on the 4th of April 2019. So, not only did he not get to play at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, but his final games for the club were not even at White Hart Lane, yet in a pretty soulless Wembley Stadium.

So, for him to, finally, get the opportunity to play there would just be incredible to see, even in a friendly. As for Bale, well, we did get to see him play at the 'new' ground, but from the TV. Typically, the season he did come back, nobody was in the ground to see it. To see a packed Tottenham Hotspur Stadium watch him play, would be pretty cool.

The game comes in the international break, so the chances of seeing active players, such as Harry Kane - who will have games for the England national team two days before, and a day after this game, is highly improbable. However, anybody retired, should in theory, have a fair chance.

Earlier this week, we saw Robbie Keane take up the vacancy at Hungarian side Ferencvaros, but with it being an international break, it may be possible to see him take part. Steven Gerrard took part in a charity game for Liverpool whilst manager of Aston Villa, during an international break - albeit much less travel there. Still, let's hope so anyway.

Would be kind of awkward if Joe Jordan and Gennaro Gattuso were both there. Would also be pretty funny in fairness. In all seriousness, this is for a great cause, and should be a great day. Let's hope Spurs have overcome their international break hoodoo against Fulham the week before, so everyone is in an even better mood for it.
