Cllr Eve Parker, Trafford Council’s Executive Member for Leisure, Arts, Culture and Heritage, said:
“The Women’s World Cup 2035 is a huge event and is expected to be the largest single-sport event to ever be held in the UK. Trafford is home to two massive sporting institutions – Manchester United’s Old Trafford and Lancashire Cricket Club – and we are used to hosting major events.
“There are huge benefits associated with being a host city for this event, including promoting Trafford on a world stage to millions and millions of people. The Council will work with FIFA and our local partners, including Manchester United, to help bring this major event to the borough.”
