Birmingham chief reveals stunning plans to build 1.5 mile tunnel UNDER the city to connect fans to proposed new £3bn 62,000-seater stadium Birmingham City chairman Tom Wagner has revealed his groundbreaking plans to build a tunnel under the city to help connect supporters to their proposed new £3billion stadium complex.
Wagner claimed it is his 'dream' to revitalise the East Birmingham area with a new stadium and surrounding complex, and the League One side are planning to develop a Sports Quarter in a 60 acre area of land the club have already acquired.
The proposed new stadium will be part of a Sports Quarter in East Birmingham, with the whole project - which will also include a new training ground - expected to cost around £3billion.
Wagner's (left) ambitious Knighthead Capital Management group took over Birmingham in 2023 and NFL legend Tom Brady (centre) is even involved with the group as a minority owner.
The proposed Sports Quarter, which is expected to cost £3billion, will include a new stadium and training ground, with Wagner likening the stadium design to a 'spaceship'.
