Manchester United Stadium Regeneration Could Add 7.3 Billion Pounds To British Economy
A proposed regeneration of the area around Manchester United's Old Trafford stadium could generate 7.3 billion pounds ($9.7 billion) annually to the British economy, according to an economic feasibility study commissioned by the club. However, mayor of Greater Manchester Andy Burnham said on Monday no public money would go towards the project. United are considering whether to pursue a 2 billion pounds plan for a brand new 100,000-seater stadium or redevelop the existing 74,000 capacity Old Trafford.
