The new stand will be built on the site of the existing Anfield Road Stand
Liverpool FC have been working hard to ensure the Anfield Road End expansion is completed on schedule. The project is set to be finished before the start of the 2023/24 season, and will see the capacity of Anfield increase to 61,015. The new stand will add 15,967 supporters to the stadium, and will be connected to the existing lower tier.
The club have released several images of the progress being made on the project, including the installation of the 550-kilogram new club crest. The crest measures 5 meters by 6.9 meters and if laid flat on the ground would cover the entire 18-yard box! The other latest images from Anfield show how the old upper tier of the Anfield Road Stand has now been completely removed, right on schedule.
