Manchester United officially confirmed that they are planning to build a new arena, insured for 100 thousand spectators. Additional information appeared on the club’s official website.

The stadium will be located 350 meters away from Old Trafford.. In the adjacent territory, leading up to the warehouse of the new sports and entertainment area Stadium District, it is planned to have approximately 15 thousand new buildings, schools and hospitals. The master plan also addresses the need to improve transport infrastructure, curb income, walking and cycling routes.

The club said that the proximity to the historic building allows for the preservation of the original atmosphere, traditions and pre-match rituals of sick days. What will happen to the current Old Trafford is still unknown, but we still decide to praise it later. Manchester United will soon be holding more consultations with fans on the design of their upcoming stadium.

It was previously reported that Manchester United were targeting Ruerson.
