A Chinese contractor has been appointed to build the Foster + Partners designed Lusail stadium for the Qatar 2022 Fifa World Cup.
The stadium, which will be one of the most important of the tournament, hosting both the opening and closing games, will be built by China Railway Construction Corporation Ltd.
Foster + Partners completed the schematic design of the 80,000-seat stadium earlier this year. The venue is located in Lusail City, 20km north of Qatar’s capital Doha, and is scheduled for completion by 2020.
