Tottenham Hotspur, captained by Alan Mullery, will play in their second European final against Manchester United in Bilbao, seeking redemption in a challenging season. A notable tradition is the all-white kit worn by Spurs in European matches, which dates back to 1961. Initially adopted for improved visibility during floodlit games, this choice was historically linked to manager Bill Nicholson. It's rumored that they emulated Real Madrid’s kit, although the practical need for visibility was the true motive behind this decision.
Tottenham's tradition of wearing all white for European matches dates back to their first ever European game in 1961, aimed at enhancing visibility on floodlit pitches.
The choice to wear white was not to mimic Real Madrid’s success, but rather a decision made for practical reasons, stemming from visibility issues during floodlit games.
