Tottenham Hotspur have confirmed their intention to build a new 60,000-capacity stadium in the same location as their current ground, but it will not be called White Hart Lane.
The club announced favourable financial results to the stock market on Thursday and decided to push ahead with proposals for a larger stadium to help cut their season ticket waiting list of around 22,000.
Chairman Daniel Levy said: "The scheme includes the current site and adjoining land with the stadium sited largely to the north of the existing one."
But the club's continued economic prudence means that the naming rights for the new stadium will be put up for sale.
"Unfortunately it's a function of modern day finance," Levy explained. "It's going to be a new stadium so it won't be White Hart Lane. If we want things to progress, things have to change."
