Manchester United's Old Trafford Regeneration Task Force has concluded its work and a decision on whether to revamp or rebuild the iconic stadium is expected by summer 2025.
Manchester United have confirmed the Old Trafford task force have held their final meeting and a decision on whether to revamp or rebuild is expected to be made by summer 2025. It was announced in March that a task force to regenerate Old Trafford and the land around it had been created and that it would be chaired by the experienced Lord Sebastian Coe.
The panel was created to explore all options for Old Trafford but to closely examine the feasibility of a new building and wider regeneration, and they have held several meetings. The Manchester Evening News reported in July that the end of the year had been earmarked for the task force to conclude their findings, and the final meeting, which was attended by CEO Omar Berrada and COO Collette Roche, is understood to have taken place virtually on Tuesday. Berrada and Roche will present a report back to United's ownership in due course and a source has said the project is 'complex' and additional feasibility work must take place before the club can make a fully informed decision on a redeveloped Old Trafford or new build stadium. The task force has provided advice and instruction on the project vision, maximisation of benefits case - including links to wider potential infrastructure changes - and the commissioning of an economic study, as well as stakeholder engagement, consultation, and alignment. The decision that sets out the direction of travel is expected to come in the summer of 2025 and the task force will continue to support the project throughout the next calendar year. Lord Coe reacted to the conclusion of the task force and said: 'Today, I had the honour of chairing the final meeting of the Old Trafford Regeneration Task Force in 2024
