I Am Really the Savior of the Red Devils

Chapter 355 Old Trafford Reconstruction Plan

Although Ye Su was not very happy because he got a draw, on the 24th, he still gave the whole team a day off and asked the players to spend Christmas Eve with their families.

On the afternoon of Christmas, the Manchester United team was united. After completing a training session, they checked into the Laurie Hotel as usual to prepare for the Christmas game on the afternoon of Boxing Day.

The 2017 Premier League Christmas match took the lead in the new Wembley Stadium. Because of the new stadium, Tottenham have leased the new Wembley Stadium as their home court for the past two seasons.

Amidst the cheers of more than 60,000 home team fans at the scene, the North London team slaughtered the opponent Saints Southampton with a score of 5:2.

This victory allowed Tottenham to overtake Liverpool and Arsenal by 3 points in the first round and return to the top 4 of the standings.

Bai Baihe performed very well in the early stage of this season, and was once stable in the top three in the league. But after a 1:4 defeat at the feet of the Red Devils in the 10th round of the Premier League, Tottenham began a period of downturn. With 1 win, 2 draws and 3 losses in 6 rounds, they fell from the third place in the Premier League and out of the European theater.

However, after sweeping Stoke City 5:1 at the New Wembley Stadium in the 16th round of the Premier League, Pochettino's team finally got back on track. They returned to the Champions League with 4 wins and 1 loss in 5 rounds. It gave Blue Moon Manchester City a superb state this season.

However, although it is something to be happy to return to the Champions League, even if it is only a temporary return to the Champions League, but Tottenham's top management may not be happy because of their sluggish home attendance.

Today, the North London team's home stadium is the new White Hart Lane Stadium with 90,000 seats, but for each of their home games, there are basically no more than 60,000 fans who come to watch the game!

Of course, this absolute number is quite a lot. It ranks second only to Manchester United among the entire Premier League team, but according to the attendance rate ranking, they are absolutely the bottom one. Even Burnley, which has the second-to-last attendance rate, has an attendance rate of about 90%, while Tottenham's attendance rate is less than 70%!

………………

The Premier League team has the highest attendance rate, and there is no doubt that it is Manchester United. Supported by the excellent record, Old Trafford was full. According to statistics, the average attendance at Old Trafford this season is as high as 75,518, which is less than 700 people away from the full occupancy rate of 76,212!

In fact, if it is not as required to leave a certain amount of space in each game, with Manchester United's current hot football market, every game can be filled.

Even, if it weren't for the limited number of seats at Old Trafford, Manchester United's attendance would have greatly increased, because every home game of Manchester United, the tickets are sold out early, how many fans are looking for scalpers for four games The party can't even buy tickets.

Because the football market is too hot, San Dezi and other Manchester United club management are already considering rebuilding Old Trafford.

Although the Old Trafford Stadium has undergone several renovations and expansions, it looks good, but many facilities in this stadium with a history of more than 100 years are actually seriously aging and cannot keep up with the development of the times.

Coupled with the limited capacity of the stadium, Manchester United's management naturally felt a little uncomfortable seeing the revenue from the stadium being restricted.

Of course, what gives Manchester United management the ideas and confidence to rebuild Old Trafford is the team's good economic situation. Due to the excellent record support and excellent market development, Manchester United now has a net profit of more than 500 million pounds every season, which can be called a real money printing machine.

Although there are still some foreign debts, despite the vampire owner of the Glazer family, Manchester United's good hematopoietic function has given the club enough confidence to spend funds to build the stadium.

………………

The Glazers are keen on rebuilding Old Trafford,

It is also supportive. Just like the owner of Tottenham envy Manchester United's terrifying attendance, the Glazer family is actually very envious of the capacity of the new Wembley Stadium that Tottenham is currently leased.

They are very convinced that with Manchester United's current state, even if Old Trafford has 90,000 seats, every game can still be full.

Since then, Manchester United can sell 13,000 more tickets for each game. Based on the current average price of Manchester United tickets of 55 pounds, this is 715,000 pounds!

Judging from Manchester United's average of about 30 home games per season in recent seasons, this is a huge income of more than 21 million pounds!

This is only ticket income, which can be regarded as other peripheral income. If the capacity of the Old Trafford Stadium is expanded to 90,000, then Manchester United will earn at least 30 million pounds per season!

This is relative to the Glazer family's own income, after all Manchester United is their private property!

Of course, the favorite method of the Glazer family is to continue to expand the Old Trafford Stadium, preferably directly increasing the number of seats to 90,000, or even more.

However, this solution is very unrealistic. After several expansions, it is difficult for Old Trafford to expand further. The only way to expand is to rebuild.

But the cost of reconstruction is sky-high. If the new Wembley Stadium is used as a reference, it will be a huge sum of up to 1 billion pounds.

This is the fundamental reason why the Glazer family has been hesitant.

………………

Ye Su didn't care too much about whether the stadium was remodeled or rebuilt. Because according to his current contract with Manchester United, none of these will affect his income.

What Ye Su really cares about is Manchester United's record and the championship they can win!

This is the real factor affecting his income.

In the 2017 Christmas game, Old Trafford was still full.

However, amid the cheers of nearly 76,000 fans at home, Manchester United, who played with most of the substitute lineup, did not perform well.
