Although the board said officially that “no definitive decision” has been reached on the issue, UK press reports suggest that board members are in favour of a new but slimmed-down Wembley.
The original Wembley project, which included offices and hotel would have cost £770million ($1,126m/B1,257m), Patrick Carver, the government adviser reviewing the stadium options, revealed.
The new proposal is put at £600m($877/B980m), including the £106m ($155m/B173m) price of the land, which was bought by the FA in 1999.
