Inside Sir Jim Ratcliffe's plans to replace Old Trafford with a 'Wembley of the North'
United's co-owner is in charge of football activity at the club but he also has big plans off the pitch.He envisions a new state-of-the-art facility that can act as the 'Wembley of the North', and host around 100,000 spectators.podcast: "You have got this opportunity if you choose to, to build a completely new ground, because we have got enough space.
"If you built a completely new ground it would absolutely be state-of-the-art, world class, 90,000 or maybe even 100,000 that then provides a platform for some of the big competitions in the north of England."Why do England always play in the south? Why is the FA Cup final always in the south? Why can't the Champions League final be in the north occasionally?
"Football in the north is just as important as it is in the south, arguably more so, and the people in the north pay their taxes, so why do we have Wembley, Twickenham, Wimbledon etc in the south.RIP RONSir Jim Ratcliffe says Man Utd's 'Wembley of the North' could be 100,000-seat mega-stadium if they leave Old Trafford
He added: "It needs to have a stadium that is befitting the club and the brand. That might have been the case 20 years ago but it isn't today. "If you look at what Real Madrid are doing now with the Bernabeu and what Barcelona with the Nou Camp, the Bernabeu now is fabulous, it's like a cauldron of noise it's really impressive.Lord Ping created several new images of what the New Old Trafford could look like, drawing on inspiration from the current stadium.
