The Story in 60 Seconds

Manchester United has launched a new survey inviting supporters to help shape the design of their proposed 100,000-capacity stadium. The initiative follows the club's March 2025 announcement to replace Old Trafford with a £2 billion venue, which co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe stated would become the world's greatest football ground. Eligible fans have until November 6 to submit feedback on atmosphere, transport, accessibility, and the wider campus.

Collette Roche, chief executive of the new stadium development, emphasized the importance of engaging supporters to protect the club's heritage. The survey is being distributed to season ticket holders, members, and hospitality purchasers. This consultation comes during a difficult period on the pitch, with manager Michael Carrick facing mounting pressure following a seven-match winless streak.
