Manchester United sells pieces of Old Trafford pitch to fans

Manchester United has launched a unique initiative allowing fans to purchase grass clumps from Old Trafford's recently relaid pitch. The sale includes small segments within acrylic cubes at a price of £125 each. This move coincides with the club's announcement of a £47 million pre-tax loss amid ongoing discussions about plans for a new stadium. The club emphasized the sentimental value of the pitch to supporters, referencing its significance in the team's history. Fans can buy these turf cubes exclusively through the United Store. Manchester United's next match is scheduled for Saturday, October 10, against Tottenham Hotspur.
