TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR were forced to perform an emergency evacuation of their stadium this morning after a fire broke out.
A blaze broke at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium at around 10am this morning, prompting an immediate call to the London Fire Brigade.
Firefighters battled with the blaze for close to an hour until they put it out completely.
Around 300 people had to be evacuated from the nine-story building, which has been used as a Covid-19 vaccination centre.
No injuries have been reported so far, with the current extent of the damage being a sole air compressor.
Spurs have yet to issue a statement on the blaze at their new home, which they moved into in March 2019.
The Fire Brigade was called at 1001, with two engines be immediately dispatched to the scene.
The first responders wrestled with the blaze for 58 minutes, before putting it out by 1059.
Tottenham will be back in action a week on Saturday, travelling to Selhurst Park to take on Crystal Palace.
Nuno Espirito Santos side will enter the early kick-off top of the Premier League tree following three wins for their first three league matches of the new season.
