Ambitious Plans For Anfield Stadium Under Active Consideration

Ambitious plans to redevelop Anfield are now under active consideration, Liverpool Football Club have confirmed.

The club have reaffirmed its commitment to the Anfield Road stand project in a statement.

Liverpool FC chief operating officer Andy Hughes said: "The progress that has been made during ongoing feasibility studies has resulted in us being in a position to allow the outline planning permission to lapse. We are committed to working with local residents, planning officials and others as we now focus on the detail behind any proposed redevelopment for Anfield Road.

"Throughout this process we have been clear that our objective is to find the best possible solution for Anfield Road and that remains the case."

Work will now continue on alternative options for Anfield Road with a view to submitting a new planning application for a larger scheme in due course.
