The discount supermarket chain is to submit plans this month for a 23,400 sq ft food store on the corner of Littleton Road and Cromwell Road at the 500-home scheme.
In addition, Lidl has submitted a planning application for a store at Mocha Parade in Lower Broughton, which is around a mile away from Castle Irwell.
Salford City Council selected Lidl as its preferred retail partner for the Mocha Parade site last year. Lidl also operates a store on Fitzwarren Street, close to Salford Shopping Centre.
The Castle Irwell store would be accessed from Littleton Road and feature a 100-space car park. A public consultation on the proposals is underway.
