Salah Al Din Stadium
Salah Al Din Stadium () is a football specific stadium in Tikrit, Iraq, that is currently under construction. Once completed, it will be used mostly for football matches and will host the home matches of Salahaddin FC as a replacement for their venue Tikrit Stadium. The stadium will have a capacity of 30,000 spectators and will cost approximately $90 million USD funded entirely by Iraqi government. Design and facilities
The design of the facility combines modernity and simplicity. The main stadium has a capacity of 30,000 seats and is specifically assigned to the practice of football. It does not contain an athletic track in order to provide a special visual experience for the spectators in the stadium, who are located as close to the field as possible. In parallel, the sports complex includes 2 training grounds (of 2000 and 500 seats respectively), which are equipped with running tracks. A 75-room hotel is being built within the stadium's perimeter. The entire project is expected to cover an area of 15 hectares. Transportation and access
The stadium is situated on the outskirts of the city of Tikrit on the right side of the Mosul-Baghdad highway. This ensures quick access to the stadium for visitors from other provinces of Iraq and also avoids traffic jams in downtown Tikrit. See also
