Is this what Man Utd's new £2bn stadium will look like? Incredible AI images show off U.S.-inspired design with 100,000 seats, stunning glass roof and eye-catching red lighting

Earlier this week, multiple media reports claimed that United are planning to splash a whopping £2 billion ($2.5bn) on a new 100,000-seater stadium instead of redeveloping the iconic Old Trafford. Now Coin Poker has used Artificial Intelligence to visualise the possible design of the Red Devils' new home ground.

The Premier League giants will reportedly seek inspiration from California-based SoFi Stadium as they plan to construct a “stadium district” that would include a hotel, other amenities and an immersive entertainment centre. Coin Poker's AI images show the new venue having a stunning glass roof, four tiers of seating and the inclusion of Sir Alex Ferguson's statue in front of the stadium that will be relocated from Old Trafford. The outside of the stadium will light up in the club's iconic colour red similar to how Bayern Munich's Allianz Arena look at night.

No formal decision has been taken yet regarding the construction which could take at least six years to complete. The club will consult with supporters and the Old Trafford Regeneration Task Force, which includes Lord Sebastian Coe and Gary Neville.

Erik ten Hag's side are currently in the United States for pre-season. They will be next seen in action on Wednesday against Real Betis in a friendly clash at Snapdragon Stadium in San Diego.
