Changes ahead as Anfield Road stand development nears completion

Changes are being proposed for Anfield as work nears completion on a stand at Liverpool FC’s historic ground.

The Reds will open a new-look stadium when they host Bournemouth in their first home game of the new campaign on August 19. After almost two years in the making, the finishing line is almost in sight for the club’s redevelopment and expansion of the Anfield Road stand.

The £80m project will allow the club to boast the fifth-largest football stadium in England - and the fourth-highest capacity in the Premier League. The change will bring an extra 7,000 seats to increase the venue to 61,000.
