Plans to build a new stadium for Dutch giants Feyenoord are in jeopardy after a 56% rise in construction cost.
The Eredivisie side had announced plans to build a new 63,000 seater stadium close to the Niewe Mass river which runs through the city. However, those plans have now been halted after the construction cost soared from €320m to €500m.
Feyenoord have now put the plans on ice as they evaluate other options. It means that the club will continue in their current De Kuip stadium for the foreseeable future. It is likely to be mid-2022 before we hear any further news about the project.
