Share this contentSHANGHAI: Chinese Super League champions Guangzhou Evergrande on Thursday began building a new stadium costing 12 billion yuan and boasting a 100,000 capacity - one of the world's largest arenas.

Eight-time Chinese champions Guangzhou, who are coached by Italian World Cup winner Fabio Cannavaro and have won the AFC Champions League twice, average about 50,000 fans for home matches.

He is believed to have done to get around vehicle restrictions imposed due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
