Manchester United aims to complete a new stadium project by 2035, according to The Guardian. The club intends for the proposed venue to serve as the centrepiece for the 2035 Women's World Cup final. This timeline aligns with ongoing discussions regarding the redevelopment of the Old Trafford site and the surrounding Trafford Park area.
A task force, chaired by Lord Sebastian Coe, continues to assess options for a 100,000-capacity stadium or the redevelopment of the existing ground. The project is expected to cost approximately £2 billion if a new build is selected, per Sky Sports. Recent reports indicate the club prefers a new-build stadium over renovation to ensure modern facilities and increased commercial revenue.
Manchester United officials have expressed interest in supporting the Football Association's potential bid for the 2035 tournament. The club believes a world-class venue in the north of England would strengthen the national case. No final decision on the construction commencement date has been confirmed by the club's board.
