With the 2022/23 season marking the launch of SPURSPLAY – the Club’s
new home of exclusive live and on-demand video – ANDY GREEVES takes
a look at the ways in which Tottenham Hotspur, our players and managers
have featured in television, film and advertising over the years. The feature
continues today with a look at various television adverts that have been
filmed at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

With 2023 shaping up to be a big year for
HARVEY WHITE, the midfielder discusses his
development to date, which included a key spell
on loan at Portsmouth a couple of seasons ago…

By Billy Shaw

At the start of what looks set to be and even tasted a Wembley cup he’s understandably keen to see how
a significant year for him, Harvey final, featuring in a defeat on penalties things progress…
White believes he has solid career to Salford City in the Papa John’s

In addition to his rich experiences

Europa League in November, 2020,
at the age of just 19 before earning
his full debut against Marine at this
stage of this afternoon’s competition,
the FA Cup, a few weeks later in
January, 2021 – he’s also thankful to
Portsmouth for the part they played
in his development.

Mere days after his appearance
against Marine, Harvey headed to
Fratton Park on loan for the second
half of the 2020/21 campaign, where
he was exposed to a range of new
circumstances – he quickly made
his league debut for Pompey, played
regularly in League One over the
following few months, witnessed a
change of manager, scored the winner
