Liverpool eye £100m target to catch up with Manchester United and Tottenham

Work on the redevelopment of Liverpool's Anfield Road end has been underway for some time now. When Reds boss Jurgen Klopp put the ceremonial spade in the ground on the £80m plan on a rainy morning at Anfield in September last year it marked the beginning of another important phase for the club and owners Fenway Sports Group.

The steel framework has risen since then the project has moved on significantly - a 300 tonne roof truss lifted into place in July - with an additional 7,000 seats to be available to help service the huge demand for matchday tickets, as well as the additional revenue streams that will arrive from conference spaces and other means.

For Liverpool, a club that places considerable importance on having a strong balance sheet to sit alongside on the pitch success, it will prove valuable in the years to come, the Anfield capacity to edge past the 60,000 mark following the Main Stand work that was completed back in 2016.
