Manchester United aims to host the Women’s World Cup 2035 in its new stadium
The Manchester United has confirmed its intention for the renovated Old Trafford to be ready to host the Women’s World Cup in 2035. The associations of England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales officially submitted their joint bid to FIFA to host the 2035 World Cup on Friday, although it was already assumed that they would be the hosts as they were the only candidates. In March, United announced its plans to leave Old Trafford, its home for more than 100 years, and move to a new stadium with a capacity of 100,000 spectators. This stadium already has a schedule, with its inclusion as part of the list of venues for the 2035 Women’s World Cup.
Collette Roche, Manchester United’s chief operating officer, stated: “Our ambition is to build a new stadium with a capacity for 100,000 spectators, suitable for hosting the most important international football matches.” “This will form part of a wider regeneration of the area surrounding Old Trafford, with far-reaching benefits for the local community, Greater Manchester and the surrounding region.”From the first plans, they could be really exciting.
