Originally, the stadium took 15,000 spectators. Since 2006 it will be expanded in two phases. After the first phase of construction, the stadium offered 24,000 people place. After the Gulf Cup 2007, the second phase began. The final completion was 2009. The new stadium was one of two venues for the FIFA Club World Cup 2009. Since its completion it has a capacity of 42 056 seats and is one of the most modern stadiums in the Arab world. It was built on the model of English football stadiums where spectators are very close to the sidelines. While two office towers were built in two corners of the stadium. In one of the two towers, a hotel will be located later. In the second tower emerged offices, where also the association has its headquarters.
