Tottenham Hotspur hope Paul Gascoigne will play in a legends match at their new stadium.

A Spurs legends XI will line-up against Inter Milan legends a week from Saturday.

A club spokesman told Standard Sport: "Gary Mabbutt, who is a close, personal friend of Paul's and our Legends team manager on the day, has been discussing Paul's participation in this match with him for some time and we all hope it will be possible for him to play."

Former England superstar Gascoigne has struggled with alcoholism and legal troubles in recent years.

Gascoigne said on Twitter: "if there's a game at spurs im up 4 it."
