Tottenham Hotspur continue to wait on the resumption of the Premier League season.
Spurs haven’t kicked a ball since March 10th, when they lost 3-0 to RB Leipzig in the Champions League, busting many people's Bovada bonus code; in the league, they last played on March 7th, in a disappointing 1-1 draw with Burnley. They have not won since February, when they beat Aston Villa 3-2.
At the time of the suspension of the league due to the ongoing global pandemic, Spurs lay eighth in the Premier League table, seven points behind fourth-placed Chelsea.
It remains to be seen, then, if they will have the chance to make up that gap any time soon.
The news cycle continues to whir, however, and there have been a number of stories following Jose Mourinho’s men as the wrangling over football’s possible return continues.
With many factors up in the air, we've taken a look at some of the best stories this week surrounding the north London club...
