The £50 million project will result in all areas of the building being refurbished to deliver a world-class football facility with a positive culture to support future success.
The architectural practice Foster + Partners, led by Manchester-born Lord Norman Foster, has been appointed to lead the project. Foster + Partners has a rich history of designing pioneering football stadiums and arenas. The practice was responsible for the reshaping of Wembley Stadium and the design of the Lusail Stadium in Qatar – the centrepiece of the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
The renovation work will begin on Monday and is expected to last for the duration of the 2024/25 season.
