Best 25 football stadiums around world, from the Bernabeu to San Mames… but Tottenham’s £1bn ground down in 21 – The Sun

ATMOSPHERE, capacity and the quality of the toilets are all taken into consideration when fans argue about the best stadiums in the world.

And a poll to determine which ground holds that honour has revealed some surprising results.


Tottenham splashed out a staggering £1BILLION on their new North London home which currently ranks just 21st despite being the most expensive stadium ever built.

But surprisingly, it's a stadium in Egypt that sits in the No 1 spot.

Here SunSport reveals the results of a poll conducted by Spanish outlet Marca.
