Feyenoord Unveils Plans For New Stadium, Redevelopment of De Kuip

Dutch club Feyenoord has "unveiled ambitious plans for a new stadium, part of a larger Feyenoord City campus in the south of Rotterdam," according to Samindra Kunti of INSIDE WORLD FOOTBALL. The future venue has a projected price tag of €400M ($508M). For years, Feyenoord has been playing at De Kuip, an "intimate venue" that has hosted multiple European Cup finals. The new stadium, on the banks of the river Meuse, "would have a capacity of 63,000 and be part of a larger redevelopment of the current site around De Kuip." Hotels, parking lots, shops and bars would be built and De Kuip would be redeveloped into a housing complex. The design for the new complex "is being worked on by OMA." The estimated cost of "Feyenoord City" is between €1B-€1.5B ($1.3B-$1.9B). Feyenoord wants to play its first match in the new stadium in the '22-23 season. The city of Rotterdam "would contribute" €100M ($127M) for the construction of the stadium (INSIDE WORLD FOOTBALL, 12/2).
