As lockdown restrictions in China to slow the coronavirus pandemic are slowly lifted, one Chinese soccer club aims to get back into the swing of things with aplomb.

Guangzhou Evergrande announced that work has began on an eye-catching, 100,000-seater stadium, which would be the largest football stadium in the world.

Designed in a lotus flower shape, the stadium is scheduled to cost US$1.7 billion and to be completed by the end of 2022.

The 100,000 capacity would surpass the 99,354 capacity of Barcelona's Camp Nou, currently the largest soccer-only stadium in the world.
