MD Andy Hughes said:

It is my great pleasure to see work officially begin on the Anfield Road Stand redevelopment. Today marks the beginning of an important new chapter in our history, and one which will see us being able to bring more of our supporters into Anfield.

I am delighted we can celebrate this significant milestone together with the many people who have contributed to this process and I look forward to celebrating further success with 61,000 fans when the stand is finished.

Cllr Qadir said:

This development is really welcomed and I’d like to thank everyone for their hard work in the background on this.

As he placed the first spade in the ground, Klopp said:

Everything is better with fans. I can’t imagine how 61,000 supporters will feel, we love the idea. With the great history of this club, it’s incredible that we are building the future too.
