NO public money will be spent on Manchester United’s plans for revamping their Old Trafford home for the time being, Andy Burnham has confirmed.
The Greater Manchester Mayor outlined ambitions to redevelop the stadium alongside a ‘mixed use’ neighbourhood featuring apartment blocks, shopping centres, and new public transport stations yesterday.
United are considering their options over whether to regenerate their existing home, or demolish it and build a new arena. While it will be up to the club to fund any new stadium or refurbishment, the Mayor said it was possible some taxpayer cash could go into infrastructure for the new neighbourhood in the future, to help build transport links, he suggested.
