Vodafone is in talks with former sponsor Manchester United about developing a fibre-optic 5G data network at Old Trafford. The deal will make the stadium one of the first UK venues to install such a system. FC Barcelona was the first club to do so in Europe through a deal with Telefonica. The Old Trafford deal is expected to see 5G used for broadcasting, with early reports claiming that holograms of presenters could be used to conduct player interviews.
