Back in 2017, Liverpool revealed they were going to shift the training centre from Melwood to a new £50m facility at Kirkby. The facility's construction started last year and is expected to be completed before the start of the 2020/21 campaign. As a result of the changes, both the first-team and club's academy personnel are set to be merged at their new facility.

Alongside the new training facility, the Reds are also considering upgrading the Anfield Road stand by a further 4,000 seats which would take the Anfield capacity past the 60,000 mark.

They had already expanded the Main Stand back in 2016, increasing the capacity to approximately 54,000. This proved to be a major success for the club, justified by the matchday revenues gradually showing an increase over the past three seasons.
