Liverpool have already lost £820,000 in matchday revenue and are set to ‘lose millions’ more because of delays to the Anfield expansion, sources have told Football Insider.
The Reds were hopeful that their expansion to the Anfield Road stand would be completed in time for the start of the 2023/24 season.
However, the Merseyside club had to delay the stand’s unveiling and then faced further complications when contractors – Buckingham Group – filed for administration last month.
The stand is expected to cost Liverpool £80million in total, although that figure could grow further because of the latest delays.
Football Insider revealed last Friday (8 September) that Liverpool aren’t expected to open the new stand at full capacity until December.
Jurgen Klopp’s side have already played twice at home at reduced capacity, and the club could be set to face a significant hit to matchday revenues as a result.
