Manchester United is considering charging fans up to £ 4,000 – pure for the right to buy a seasonal card in their planned new stadium.
Mail Sport understands what a very controversial introduction of a 'personal seat permit' system that is commonplace in America, but not yet to be seen in the Premier League was one of a number of proposals presented to fans by the US CSL International in the US.
Although United Officials have emphasized that no final decisions have been made and that they are at an exploratory stage, such a movement supporters would be forced to pay thousands before they have to expand themselves separately for their season cards.
Under the system, which is often used over the Atlantic Ocean to Fundse new stadiums, fans who make up for a PSL would first refuse in the chair for the next 30 years. However, if they do not buy a season ticket, they would automatically lose the license.
After the arrival of co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his Ineos Group, United Concept Designs unveiled by the award-winning architect Lord Norman Foster for a new stadium with 100,000 capacity that is being built on the Old Trafford side.
It is expected that such a location to the north of £ 2 billion would cost. The club is looking for government financing for the broader infrastructure of what a huge regeneration project is, but would raise money for the stadium construction itself.
Earlier this month, Mail Sport Lord Seb Coe revealed to lead the plans, where United hopes to organize the 2035 World Cup finale of the World Cup 2035 in what their new home would be.
They focus on the 2031-32 season for a large opening, although the situation is currently being complicated by reaching a non-agreement on the purchase of the Freightliner terminal, behind the Stretford end, which is crucial for the proposed build.
United Insiders insist that the introduction of a PSL is hypothetical and part of broad options for ticket price models in a new stadium.
They were discussed with focus groups in the second week of July with seasonal card holders, members and business customers.
United sources say they were part of a series of early ideas and themes that were presented to fans to find out what resonates and what should be refined.
They added that a survey will follow all fans in due course.
Opposition against PSLs would undoubtedly be strong. Tickets for adults for the upcoming campaign cost United fans between £ 608 and £ 1,121, an increase of five percent. Prices for less than 16 years remain unchanged.
Most NFL franchises use a form of PSL system. In the Levi's Stadium, the home of the 49 people of San Francisco, Seat licenses up to £ 60,000 can costs, although fans can pay in installments.
In 2017 it was reported that the Los Angeles Rams, owned by Arsenal -owner Stan Kroenke, would charge up to £ 166,000 for seats in their £ 2 billion sofi stage -a lot of embezzlement of the £ 110,000 that were in their AT & T -Stadion by the Dallas Cowboys.
In football, some have aimed at rich individuals as part of a limited PSL system. La Liga Giants Barcelona and Real Madrid, for example, have picked up tens of millions by selling seats in the VIP areas of their renewed stadiums to people with high power.
About 20 percent of the United stadium, if it is built, is expected to consist of business offers.
