Rejected petition Stop the sale of Wembley Stadium to private hands.

There are reports that the FA have agreed to sell Wembley Stadium to Shahid Khan, the American billionaire. This stadium only opened in 2007, at an estimated total cost of £1 billion (including improvements to local transport infrastructure). This would see a national asset being sold abroad.

This petition was rejected

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:

You could start a new petition to ask the UK Government to urge the FA not to sell Wembley Stadium.

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