Manchester United: Finance
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what financial support the Government is providing for the redevelopment of Manchester United's Old Trafford ground.
Answered by Alex Norris
There is no direct financial support committed for the redevelopment of Old Trafford football ground. Greater Manchester Combined Authority will receive around £630 million per annum through their integrated settlement from the start of the 2025-26 financial year.
This will give the Mayor and Combined Authority much greater freedom and funding flexibility to drive forward the local economy and deliver growth. This may include support for priority regeneration schemes such as the redevelopment of Old Trafford stadium.
