This petition was submitted during the 2017 to 2019 Parliament
Rejected petition Stop the FA from selling Wembley Stadium to NFL team owner Shahid Khan.
Rejected on
Wembley Stadium is an iconic national football stadium that has a deep-rooted history. It is a profitable enterprise with the costs of the stadium development expected to be paid off in 2024 - we believe that it should not be sold to any foreign buyer.
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
Any decision about selling Wembley Stadium is the responsibility of the Football Association, not the UK Government or Parliament.
You could contact the FA directly about this issue:

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
