Managing director John Nelms claims Dundee have “done everything asked of us and more” in the bid for a new 12,500-seat stadium at Camperdown Park.
The Tayside club have stated that all necessary documentation has today been submitted to Dundee City Council relating to the Camperdown Stadium Project following two years of talks between all relevant parties.
A club statement said: “After the initial submission for Planning Permission in Principle in February 2024, our consultants have worked through a significant engagement process with all relevant stakeholders to ensure the most robust submission.
“We now believe we have taken every step required of us and look forward to our application being heard at the next available committee hearing date.
“We would like to thank our supporters for their patience during what has become a protracted planning application.
“We have never wavered from our belief that the Camperdown Stadium Project will transform Dundee FC’s future ambitions on and off the pitch, and that it will be a crown jewel of the city’s rejuvenation through its many social, leisure and economic benefits.”

Nelms told the club’s official website: “Firstly, I would like to thank my project team for guiding us to this stage.
“As many fans will have detected, there have been many times during this process – which began in 2017 – when my frustrations have bubbled to the surface.
“While I would have preferred to have kept fans more up-to-date, we agreed to proceed at this critical phase privately with relevant stakeholders to focus on updating key elements of feedback.
“Having done everything asked of us and more, and having respected the planning process, we now place our faith and the project’s future in the hands of the city’s elected representatives.
“We look forward to sharing our vision with them as soon as possible.”
