Anfield's 2013-2024 Transformation 🏟️

Since the decision was made in 2013 that Liverpool would remain at Anfield, the club has been working on a plan to expand the venue. First on the agenda was the main stand. The official opening of the redeveloped stand was held on 9 September 2016. On 30 September 2021, the second phase of the venue redevelopment officially began, which included the extension of the stand behind the north goal. The modernisation is still ongoing, and was scheduled to be completed this year. As it turns out, reality has fallen short of expectations.

The work, which began in autumn 2021, was progressing smoothly and without disruption, and problems with the investment started practically at the very end. Initially, there was talk of a slight slip, but we already know that the new grandstand will not open in 2023. Initial minor delays in the works became more serious when the development’s general contractor, Buckingham Group, filed for bankruptcy. Construction was completed in 2024
