It is reported that Sir Jim Ratcliffe is in a hurry to make his mark at United having struck a deal to acquire a 25 per cent stake in the club last year. And near the top of Ratcliffe\u2019s agenda is the state of United\u2019s stadium. Old Trafford was once the Premier League\u2019s leading venue but it has been surpassed in terms of modernity and functionality in recent decades. How United have fallen behind in recent times Arsenal, Tottenham and West Ham are among the Premier League teams to have moved into new stadiums over the past two decades and Everton will soon follow suit, while Liverpool\u2019s Anfield and Manchester City\u2019s Etihad Stadium have both undergone significant expansions and refurbishments in recent times. An AI-generated image produced by Midjourney and courtesy of Instant Casino shows what a new Old Trafford could look like, and from above it bears similarities with Tottenham\u2019s new stadium due to the bowl-shaped roof. It is yet to be decided whether United will choose to regenerate Old Trafford or build a new stadium altogether, but the Mail say there are concerns that a revamp, which, although a cheaper option, would still cost close to a \u00a31billion, would only be a short-term fix. United already own a significant amount of land around Old Trafford, so building a new stadium altogether would not mean an upheaval in terms of the location of the team\u2019s home matches. The Mail reports that United\u2019s majority owners, the Glazer family, are happy for INEOS to take the lead on the new stadium.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AI image shows how new Old Trafford could look after Sir Jim Ratcliffe Manchester United update Midjourney\/Instant CasinoA new AI-generated image shows what Manchester United\u2019s new stadium could look like under plans to make Old Trafford \u2018the Wembley of the North\u2019.
