Liverpool: Anfield Road redevelopment work halted as opening date uncertain due to Buckingham group issues

Liverpool chief executive Billy Hogan says redevelopment work on the club's Anfield Road stand is on hold and its re-opening date is "uncertain".

Construction began in 2021 to add 7,000 seats and increase capacity to 61,000.

The main construction contractor, Buckingham Group, halted work last week after it filed a notice to appoint administrators.

"We're in a bit of a holding pattern right now based on the news we got," Hogan told Liverpool's website.

"That needs to reach its conclusion before we can truly start to take the next steps.
