Arena expert Dan Persson says in an interview with the Daily News to Friends Arena may need to be rebuilt for 200 million dollars and the Jets could play on artificial turf ahead.
– One may ask why you did not build it right, but I think they felt that costs had already spiraled says Persson told the newspaper.
Last year predicted arena expert Dan Persson, columnist at sport shops, the Friends Arenas operating company would make 200 million kronor loss.
The income statement for 2013 would then display the 203 million kronor.
After having correctly predicted the grim future of 2013, he predicts now a new, bleak future in terms of the 2014 income statement.
“Can ask”
Person believes that the operating company will make 230 million kronor in loss and that soon it will be artificial turf as ordinary surfaces.
In addition, Persson claims that the stadium needs to be rebuilt because it does not live up to the demands of the guests have, for example, restaurants and services.
– I would say it needed a rebuild for 200-300 million. One may ask why you did not build it right, but I think they felt that costs had already spiraled
Tones down the totals
Personal predicts that the surface will be replaced with natural grass at the five-six times a year when it played international matches at Friends. For AIK its part, it will be artificial turf.
– But if AIK would agree to this will of course also require a hefty financial compensation, says Persson.
Thomas Pers Lund, CEO of the operating company, told the Daily News that some reconstruction might be needed, but he does not recognize the 200-300 million Persson reason about.
As for possibly artificial turf at the stadium in the future leaves Pers Lund following Comment:
– I see no financial gain in switching surfaces. Then there are other solutions that are more interesting, he tells the Daily News.
