Football stadiums can be a special attraction, especially in big cities that are home to the biggest European clubs. If you’re a football fan like me, stadiums are a special experience for you. Rarely does a football fan miss visiting the stadiums of the best football clubs, whether they go to a game of that club or just tour the stadium. When we talk about Europe we can say that there is stadium with special history, amazing design in almost every city and it is very difficult to point only a few.
10. Anfield
When Anfield opened in 1884, Everton played on it, but later it became known exclusively as the stadium of its city rival Liverpool. Although the current owners of the Reds wanted to build a new home for their footballers because of the glorious history that makes Anfield, they gave up on that. The building itself is not rich in beauty or fiery atmosphere, but the rich past of the club makes it special.
Bet on Premier League with 1xBet9. Wanda Metropolitano
Wanda Metropolitano is today the stadium of Atletico Madrid, although it was first built with the intention of hosting the 1997 World Athletics Championships. As the household belonged to Athens, the stadium with 20,000 seats was left without a purpose. It was first called the Madrid Community Stadium, then the Madrid Olympic Stadium because the Spaniards wanted to host the Summer Olympics, but their candidacy was rejected, so the stadium was closed in 2004. However, in 2013, it became the property of Atletico, whose sponsor, the Chinese company Wanda, which took over the club, invested huge money in the stadium, which today has a capacity of 68,000 spectators and looks very modern. It was officially opened in September 2017.
8. Luzhniki
Luzhniki, an Olympic complex with 84,745 seats, is also the largest sports facility in Russia. It was built in 1956, but for the needs of the World Cup held in 2018, the set was renovated and became a very beautiful facility.

Allianz Arena is a stadium where Bayern Munich play as host. It is interesting that the stadium, which was built in 2005 for the needs of the World Cup, is not called that at the Champions League matches, but the Munich Arena due to various UEFA regulations.

The stadium has special effects with lasers and lights that are released at every game and thus create a real spectacle.
5. Camp Nou
Camp Nou is the largest football stadium in Europe with 99,354 seats. There are almost no tourists staying in the capital of Catalonia without visiting Barcelona's stadium.

However, when some of the best football players of today perform on it, few people pay attention to the aesthetics and the fact that there are no modern content at the stadium.
4. Old Trafford
Old Trafford is certainly one of the most iconic football stadiums.

It cannot be said to be one of the modern or most beautiful stadiums on the Old Continent, but it has been one of the most spectacular ones for decades.

However, in the last two years, this stadium was renovated and everyone is waiting for it to be finished and to see where the most successful European team will play. According to plans and announcements from Real Madrid’s board, it will be a multifunctional stadium with the latest technology implemented.
