The Football Association is planning to include a redeveloped Old Trafford in the UK’s bid book of stadiums to host matches at the 2035 Women’s World Cup. The plans will be made public this week.
Old Trafford is in line to feature in the bid even though Manchester United’s plans for a new 100,000-seat stadium amount only to artists’ impressions and there are doubts over how the projected £2bn project will be funded.
