The process will see our ground’s capacity expanded to 54,000 – a rise of 9,000 – by the 2016-17 season, with the main stand able to hold an impressive 21,000 spectators once complete.

Andrew Parkinson, the project’s operations director, was quoted as saying:” Progress is on track since December when we said we would be going ahead with the Main Stand development.

“We’ve been doing a lot of the foundation works and now we’re in the process of erecting the steel and that’s all coming up very quickly.

“We’re already at the stage where the new steel is as high as the existing Main Stand and that’s within a week since the steel arrived. As we get further and further, from game to game, people are going to see a big transformation in front of their eyes.”

Once work on the Main Stand has been completed, developers will move onto the Anfield Road end. Once all the work has been completed, the capacity of the stadium will be just short of 60,000.
