Who we are

In a world full of United, Citys and Rovers, there is only one Hotspur. Tottenham Hotspur.
Founded in 1882, Tottenham Hotspur is an iconic English football club, playing in the Premier League and Women’s Super League.

From North London to the world, our fanbase spans continents, cultures, and generations. Spurs is a club that’s always dared to push boundaries, breaking new ground and rewriting history.

We offer world-class facilities: In 2019, we opened our state-of-the-art Stadium, a £1 billion landmark that’s the beating heart of North Tottenham’s transformation.
