On May 11 of the same year, a statue of Bobby Moore was unveiled, located right in front of the main entrance. The venue was put into operation on March 9, 2007, thanks to which the first official game could be played 15 days later (England U21 - Italy U21). It was accompanied by numerous scandals: the opening was delayed more than 4 years in relation to the initial plans and the cost more than doubled during implementation. On September 30, 2002, the ground was finally broken, and the actual construction work was carried out between 20. Unfortunately, the works were delayed due to financial and legal turmoil. The original plan was to start demolition of the old arena by Christmas 2000 and finish construction by 2003. New Wembley was built on the site of the old stadium that existed in the years 1923-2002.

There's also a light rail station around 300 metres to the south, serviced by Chiltern Railways. The stadium is serviced by two subway lines (Metropolitan and Jubilee) with the Wembley Park Station located under 700 metres to the north. The temple of English football is located in the principal town of the borough of Brent in north west London.
