Manchester City supporters will now be able to get even closer to their heroes, with the club reportedly planning to build a glass players’ tunnel.

City are set to create the new feature for fans to see the players are they prepare to take to the pitch in a new executive lounge, in a European first.

American Football team Dallas Cowboys’ AT&T Stadium currently have a similar view in place.

The concept has already raised a few eyebrows from other clubs, who are unlikely to enjoy seeing opposition fans goading them as they take to the field of play, report the Daily Mail.

Incidents in the past of the game spilling over into the tunnel include Patrick Vieira’s ‘fight’ with Roy Keane at Highbury, whilst had a glass tunnel been in place Arsenal’s infamous ‘Pizzagate’ situation may have been resolved far more quickly.

City have yet to announce how much the seats in the lounge will be, and the full package is expected to include a padded seat near the managerial dugouts.
