Inter Milan announce Legends squad to play at Spurs’ new stadium

One test event completed... and one more to come. As announced earlier, Tottenham Hotspur will host a Legends match against Inter Milan on Saturday, March 30 in front of 45,000 Tottenham fans, the last shakedown cruise for the new stadium before safety certifications are issued and Spurs are cleared to host the first Premier League match against Crystal Palace on Wednesday, April 3.

Spurs have already announced their list of retired players who will suit up for their squad, but we haven’t heard from Inter... until now. Inter announced the “Inter Forever” squad who will visit the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is managed by Francesco Toldo and features a number of names recognizable to Spurs fans, including keeper Julio Cesar, defenders Laurent Blanc and Mikaël Silvestre, and forwards... Jurgen Klinsmann & Robbie Keane?!

Yes, Klinsmann and Keano played for both Spurs and Inter during their careers, and it appears that both will be switching shirts at some point to get minutes for both teams. I wonder what kind of reaction that will get from the Tottenham faithful?
