An advert promoting Tottenham's new stadium has taken a cheeky swipe at the club's London rivals Arsenal and Chelsea.

Spurs are due to move into their new 61,500-seater home in N17 next season after spending a year at Wembley while construction of the new stadium continued on the site of their former ground, White Hart Lane.

Mauricio Pochettino's side are set to play Champions League football in their new home after qualifying for Europe's premier club competition for a third straight season.

Spurs finished third in the Premier League to book their place in the Champions League, while neighbours Chelsea and Arsenal missed out on the top four.

The Gunners could have qualified for the Champions League had they won the Europa League but Arsene Wenger's side were narrowly beaten by Atletico Madrid in the semis, and thus missed out on a return to Europe's top table.

It means only one team from the capital will play in the Champions League for the first time since the 2002/03 campaign.

"The only place to watch Uefa Champions League in London," said an advert on the London transport network.

Tottenham will likely be in Pot 2 for the Champions League draw after Liverpool missed out on winning the title in Keiv on Saturday.

The defeat means the Reds will likely be seeded in Pot 3 for the group stage draw, bumping Spurs into Pot 2.

Mauricio Pochettino's men were in Pot 3 last season and drawn into the 'Group of Death' alongside Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund.
