Manchester United rejected the opportunity to move into a new stadium for free ahead of the 2002 Commonwealth Games, it has been revealed.
On March 11, 2025, Manchester United announced plans to build a 100,000-seater stadium to replace Old Trafford, which is expected to cost £2bn. With Old Trafford worn down and in need of renovation, the last of which took place in 2006, Manchester United co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe highlighted the club's intention to move away from the historic ground and build something completely from scratch.
