In a dramatic twist, UEFA has officially confirmed that Tottenham Hotspur’s Champions League showdown with AS Monaco has been postponed. The Group Stage fixture, originally scheduled to take place this week at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, will now be rescheduled following unforeseen circumstances.
According to reports, the postponement was caused by travel and security complications affecting Monaco’s arrival in London. UEFA released a brief statement assuring fans that the decision was made “in the interest of player safety and match integrity.” Tottenham also expressed disappointment but fully supported the governing body’s call.
The news comes as a blow to Spurs fans, who had eagerly anticipated the clash after their team’s strong start in the competition. Manager Ange Postecoglou described the delay as “frustrating, but understandable,” adding that his squad will remain focused and ready whenever a new date is announced.
Monaco, meanwhile, has also acknowledged the postponement, citing logistical issues that made travel “impossible within the required timeframe.” Both clubs have emphasized their commitment to ensuring the match goes ahead as soon as possible.
UEFA is expected to confirm a new fixture date in the coming days, with all tickets and broadcasting rights remaining valid. For now, Tottenham fans will have to wait a little longer to witness what was set to be a thrilling European night under the lights in North London.
