Liverpool will not be pressured into deciding on whether to redevelop Anfield or move to a new stadium, according to managing director Ian Ayre.
According to the Press Association, Ayre revealed on Sunday it was “increasingly unlikely” that the club would be able to redevelop 45,000-seat Anfield and instead suggested a move to a new stadium at nearby Stanley Park could be a more realistic option.
“No amount of pressure will force Liverpool Football Club to make a decision quickly for the wrong reasons,” he said. “With regards the refurbishment, the type of work that's been going on (in the last nine months) has been developing plans and drawings that look at what is possible with Anfield, and that has incorporated a study into the extension of the main stand and a study into the extension of the Anfield Road End.
“Both of these, if successful, could deliver a 60,000-plus seater, which would be great, but it comes with whole other challenges and whole other areas we have to investigate.”
