AI generated images show what Man Utd’s Old Trafford could look like in years to come

Manchester United fans have long been calling for their beloved Old Trafford to receive a much-needed facelift.

The Theatre of Dreams hasn’t been updated at all since the Glazers took over in 2005, which has lead to several issues in and around the ground in the years since.

There’s repeatedly been leaks during heavy rainfall, most notoriously from the Sir Bobby Charlton Stand ahead of the Manchester derby in April 2019.

And footage emerged last season of what appeared to be urine flooding the men’s toilets from the drains in the floor. So it’s safe to say the stadium is well overdue a renovation.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like it’ll be happening any time soon – as the Glazer family are stalling on their sale of the club and leaving bidders Sheikh Jassim and Sir Jim Ratcliffe in the lurch.

The former had vowed to redevelop Old Trafford and the surrounding area as part of his offer, much like Sheikh Mansour has done with rivals Man City since his arrival in 2008.

For now, though, United fans will likely have to put up with another season as it is. But that doesn’t mean they can’t dream about what it could look like.

Thanks to AI, Daily Star Sport can show you what Old Trafford may potentially look like in the decades to come. The artificial intelligence created one picture which shows the north and south stands with new curved roofs.

Others predict completely different designs to the current layout, with a whole new stadium one idea that has been suggested in the past.

It’s been estimated that process could take six years and would be quicker than revamping Old Trafford, which may take up to a decade to complete.

AI also threw up some more futuristic possibilities which will be scoffed at now – but just you wait for the robot invasion to take full force.

One shows a floating structure above the middle of the pitch equipped with floodlights. And the other is rather rogue, with Old Trafford looking more like a rugby stadium or running track.

However, they both correctly predict cloud cover in Manchester – which is a given, to be fair.
