As you may have heard over the past few days, Man City are currrently immersed in plans to develop the 80-odd acres of derelict wasteland currently lying vacant next to the Etihad Stadium…
…into a new, £100-million training complex complete with 15 full-size pitches (including one indoor pitch), on-site sleeping accommodation for 72 players (40 youth teamers and 32 members of the first string), a medical/rehab centre (for Kolo Toure) and a 7,000 capacity stadium for reserve and youth string matches.
This very morning, City have begun circulating computery knock-ups of what the training suite is going to look like upon completion and, as you’d imagine given they’ve got a bottom-less pit of petro-moolah at their disposal, it looks really rather impressive…
Pretty swish, no?
