Manchester United are hoping to have their new 100‚000-seater stadium ready to host the Women's
World Cup Final in 2035. Concerns have been raised about the lack of progress in the year since
United unveiled ambitious plans at the offices of
Foster + Partners in
London to build a £2billion arena to replace
Old Trafford. But Daily Mail Sport revealed last week that
United hope to submit a planning application in the next 12 to 18 months‚ and the club's CEO of stadium development Collette Roche believes the project is on course to meet Greater
Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham's target of hosting the women's final in nine years' time.
