The British government is 'really enthusiastic' to get the new stadium of Man United 'off the ground' and remains convinced that the project will continue.
Man United announced plans last week to build a brand new £ 2 billion stadium, 100,000 seats to bring the club in the future, with a new site that has long been discussed by Sir Jim Ratcliffe.
But it comes at a time when the moral around the club is low, with United who struggles in 13th place in the Premier League and is struggling for every consistency or form in the early stages of the Ruben Amorim era.
The stunning plans were drawn up by the renowned British architect Lord Norman Foster, including a brutal nod to the infamous climate of Manchester.
United is planning to pay for the stadium and elements that benefit them directly, but rely on public financing for the rest of the project and the broader regeneration of the Old Trafford area, in which Konselier Rachel Reeves supports the plans.
Now Lisa Nandy – the State Secretary for Culture, Media and Sport of the United Kingdom – has spoken and stated that they would like to 'crack' with the project.
She said Sky Sports: 'It is currently a moving party, but we are impatient to grow the economy again and to get such projects off the ground. We don't waste a minute.
'The Chancellor, business secretary and I have been in discussions and we would really like to accept.
'Manchester United must make their own plans and satisfy their own investors. What we have to do as a government is to maximize the benefits of such projects for the communities they serve.
'That is why we work together with the mayor of Greater Manchester and others. But we are really sure that we can do that. '
Three gigantic towers, inspired by the trident of the Red Devils, dominate the skyline and effectively retain the 'umbrella' – a sweeping glass and steel canopy above it that fans dry inside and outside, which would be comfortable the largest stadium in Groot -Britain.
The time of Ratcliffe in the club, just over a year, is characterized by cuts and cost-saving measures, because the new co-owner wants to strengthen the financial situation at Old Trafford.
Such a topic that has proven to be an increasingly thornier subject is the ticket prices of the club.
Earlier this week it was revealed that the ticket prices of the season would rise again before 2025-26.
The club believes that the increase of approximately £ 2.50 per match is close to inflation and reflects their rising costs that they cannot continue to absorb.
The seasonal card prices for adults will now vary between £ 608- £ 1,121. Youth and senior tickets are lower and United have also applied a blanket 25 percent concession for all OAPS, some of whom benefited from a saving of 50 percent.
But the confidence of the Manchester United supporters said they were 'disappointed' that the club called calls to freeze all prices.
Must express his concern about plans to relocate fans behind the Dugouts in Old Trafford and sell their seats at higher prices in a new VIP area, and also charge non-season card holders more for premium games using a match categorization model.
They also challenged United about an increase in the minimum user requirement of the seasonal card holder for 16 of the 19 Premier League matches, the decision to impose £ 10 costs on fans who return their tickets to the club less than two weeks before the competition, and an increase of 15 percent in parking costs.
