Wembley Stadium will remain open in full for all three of Tottenham Hotspur's Champions League group-stage games, the club confirms.

Tottenham Hotspur have confirmed that they will use the full 90,000 capacity of Wembley Stadium for their three Champions League group-stage fixtures next season.

The Lilywhites announced in May that an agreement had been struck with the Football Association to play their European games at the home of English football while their new stadium is being constructed.

It had not been known whether Spurs planned to open the top tier of their temporary ground, but the decision has now been made to keep the entire venue open for supporters.

"We are delighted to confirm that we shall be opening the full stadium capacity for all of our Champions League fixtures next season," the North London outfit said in a statement.

"We shall be launching a group stage multi-game ticket that will be on sale shortly. Not only will this ticket ensure your place at all three group stage matches, it will also secure you the same seat for these and for any subsequent matches in the campaign that you buy tickets for."

Spurs announced earlier this year that all Premier League and cup fixtures could also be moved to Wembley for the 2017-18 season.
