City reveal exciting plans
12 Mar 2010 - 09:25:41
Manchester City will look at ways of increasing their stadium's current 48,000 capacity after announcing a £1billion agreement with Manchester City Council to develop land around Eastlands.
The scheme will create thousands of jobs as the site is turned into a "world-class sports and leisure complex".
Current City owner Sheikh Mansour has been keen to develop the spare land around Eastlands for some time and now looks set to get his wish with a new training ground a possibility while the first phase of the development will involve a 'market place-style fan zone' on Joe Mercer Way.
"Manchester City has been and always will be at the heart of the community it serves in the City of Manchester," said chief executive Garry Cook.
"The longer term considerations for the area reflect the long-term commitment of our owners to the club and the community it serves."
