The authorities of the central government and the prefecture of Tokyo have been negotiating how splitting the cost, according to NHK.

In this regard, the Minister responsible for Toshiaki Endo Olympics, will meet next week with the governor of Tokyo, Yoichi Masuzoe, in order to get the input.

 The capacity of the new stadium was also reduced to 68,000 seats, 80,000 under the huge project of Zaha Hadid.
