Seems really odd to me on both parties ends to be considering it. Motivation is apparently at least in part to use it for NFL games for Khan's team (Jags) moving forward from what I've read. Assuming he's going to charge the FA rent for england games, cup finals and promotion games when they do want to use it?
Seems like once he has it he could really squeeze the FA on rent. As much as they could move fixtures around an FA cup final at Old Trafford just would't be the same. Cost 1.1 billion to build in today's dollars so they'd be getting most of that back and retaining their office and club seat program.
