Manchester stadium
On 22 June 2026, Manchester United announced it had secured the majority of the land needed to build a new 100,000-seat stadium. The 25-acre site, located 350 metres north-west of Old Trafford, between Wharfside Way, Europa Way and John Gilbert Way, was purchased from Indurent, a UK warehouse landlord owned by the American private equity giant Blackstone Inc. The price was undisclosed. The deal was described as a “significant milestone.”
On the same day, Andy Burnham left office, sworn in as an MP for Makerfield and standing down as Mayor of Greater Manchester. The BBC, reporting the land deal in a sports dispatch, noted the two events in the same breath without drawing the connection.[3]
