Plans for the proposed redevelopment of the Anfield Road Stand were given the green light by Liverpool City Council's planning committee today.
The redevelopment, which was given approval from the city’s planning committee, will increase the stadium’s capacity by around 7,000, taking Anfield’s overall capacity to more than 61,000.
As part of the application, the club has also been awarded permission to hold up to six concerts and major events at the stadium for a period of five years.
The plans for the proposed Anfield Road Stand were the subject of two stages of public consultation with local residents, businesses, fans and stakeholders.
