Lord Norman Foster, the company's executive chairman, said: "This has to be one of the most exciting projects in the world today. It all starts with the fans' experience, bringing them closer than ever to the pitch and acoustically cultivating a huge roar.
"The stadium is contained by a vast umbrella, harvesting energy and rainwater, and sheltering a new public plaza that is twice the size of Trafalgar Square."
And United fans on social media have reacted positively to the plans, with many supporters left in awe.
"A new era begins this is more than just a stadium it's a symbol of ambition and legacy," said one user.
