December 8, 2014
City’s new academy is located at the centre of a £200m regeneration project in Eastern Manchester, sick funded by the Abu Dhabi United Group (ADUG) in partnership with Manchester City Council.
ADUG, who own Manchester City, have invested £50m in cleaning and redeveloping polluted, disused former industrial land adjacent to the Etihad Stadium in order to create the ‘Etihad Campus’.
The unveiling of the 80–acre regenerated brownfield site, adjacent to the Etihad Stadium and part of the wider 200 acres known as the Etihad Campus, was overseen by Chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak and the Right Honourable George Osborne, Chancellor of the Exchequer during his visit to the city.
