MANCHESTER UNITED are spending millions upgrading their Aon training ground – which is set to include a new games and music room.
The Red Devils have plans in place for a huge revamp of their Carrington complex, which requires a much-needed uplift.
Old Trafford chiefs put in planning permission last year for the new facilities, offices, gym and catering area along with overspill car park.
The United squad are having their input in what is included, with ideas and suggestions on the multi-million-pound overhaul.
And SunSport understands fresh recreational rooms to relax in are on the agenda for the players and staff.
The upgrades will also see a quiet and chill-out zone, for their stars to wind down after morning sessions.
A wellness area for activities like yoga and reading is also on the cards to help them with recovery after games.
It is believed United have appointed Mags Mernagh as the Programme Director for Carrington Development.
She was one of the main brains behind Leicester’s new £100m training ground, which has been a roaring success since Brendan Rodgers’ side started using it in December 2020.
The Red Devils already put a planning application in last year for new floodlights and an all-seater stand at Carrington.

The club also want improved-access footpaths, pitchside toilets, an electricity sub-station and new fencing along the east side of the training centre.
SunSport revealed last month how United are also putting special ‘hoods’ on the new floodlights to protect endangered bats.
Experts were drafted in to write up a special report into the nocturnal mammals, with the shields recommended.
