Spurs fans have been reacting on Twitter to the news that the North London club will now not be training together until next month.
After the FA extended the postponement of football until the 30th of April earlier this week, Spurs made the decision to end all first-team training until next month. Alasdair Gold confirmed the news on his Twitter, suggesting that some players may still travel to Hotspur Way for rehab, but there will be no training sessions taking place, with players expected to stay fit at home.
It is almost impossible to predict when the Premier League will resume amidst the current viral outbreak, but it is perhaps the best thing for the club to do in terms of safety at this time.
Do you think Ndombele will take this time to get fit?
Yes
No

Most of these Spurs fans took the opportunity to criticise club-record signing Tanguy Ndombele, who has struggled with fitness issues since joining last summer.
What do we think?
Stopping training was probably the safe option for Spurs, but it will be interesting to see which players are motivated to keep themselves fit for when the Premier League does resume.
