US gaming giant Las Vegas Sands
will invest about $400 million in its proposed casino
project with English football club Manchester United Plc , the
casino operator's president said on Thursday.
Manchester United - the world's richest football club - has
applied for a casino license for a resort to be built near
its Old Trafford Stadium.
"Rooms, a spa, restaurants, a sports bar, a sports betting
shop -- it will be a lifestyle centre themed around
Manchester United," Las Vegas Sands President and Chief
Operating Officer William Weidner told Reuters in an
interview. Las Vegas Sands, which is also vying to build a
$2-2.5 billion casino in Singapore, will pay for the entire
cost of the UK project.
This ties in with the general consensus
of opinion on our Online Casino Forum. Since Malcolm Glazer
took a 75% controlling interest in the Manchester English
Football Giants, there has been speculation that the Glazer
family will use the new relaxed gambling laws in the UK to
facilitate a Super Casino as part of the Old Trafford
Complex.
