PA Images | "Our estimate for the current financial year of the potential loss of revenue, should the stadium remain closed to fans, is in excess of £150 million," said Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy.

The Premier League club recorded a loss of £67.7 million last season largely owing to an increase in payable interest and amortisation, coupled with declining revenue.

Operating expenses rose mainly due to a full year of depreciation of the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Spurs have refinanced their debt position and brought the weighted average interest rate down, but the club's liabilities nonetheless rose by more than £70 million.
