Water gushed down the stands at Old Trafford on Sunday and a 'waterfall' developed in the east stand after Man United's defeat to Arsenal.
Manchester United have no immediate plans to fix the roofing issues that caused mass leaks at Old Trafford on Sunday.
United have explored the feasibility of a new roof and have detailed plans in place for a possible replacement on the Sir Bobby Charlton Stand. However, club sources say it would be a multi-million-pound project with multi-year engineering work that would cause significant disruption to stadium operations. United would also incur huge operational costs.
A similar waterfall developed in the roof of the Stretford End before the Manchester derby in April 2019. In December 2021, operations director Jim Liggett dismissed the leak on the fans' forum and put it down to "the siphon system that drains surface water from the roof, not by a leak in the roof itself".
Old Trafford is not among the 10 stadiums that will host European Championship matches in the UK and Ireland in 2028.
