Manchester United to Build 100,000-Seat Stadium, Replacing Old Trafford

The £2 billion project aims to create the world's greatest football stadium and drive major economic regeneration in Greater Manchester.

The new stadium, designed by Foster + Partners, will feature a 100,000-seat capacity and a futuristic trident-inspired design.
Construction will take place adjacent to Old Trafford, allowing games to continue at the current stadium until the new one is completed.
The £7.3 billion regeneration project is expected to create 92,000 jobs and includes new housing, commercial spaces, and public infrastructure.
Manchester United's leadership, including co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe and former manager Sir Alex Ferguson, have backed the move as essential for the club's future.
The project, which could take up to seven years to complete, will be funded privately for the stadium, with potential public financing for surrounding infrastructure improvements.
