This Is Anfield
Built in 1884 Anfield is one of the most famous grounds in world football, initially rented by Everton FC. The first game at the ground, on the 28th of September 1884, saw Everton beat Earlstown 5-0. In 1891, Everton moved out of Anfield after a dispute over the rent, and one year later newly-founded Liverpool moved in, their first match at Anfield was a 7-1 win over Rotherham.
In the early 1980s, a start was made to convert the arena into an all-seater stadium. In 1982, the iconic Shankly Gates were raised. In the 1990s, the final modifications to the stadium were realized, commencing with the reconstruction of the two-tiered Centenary Stand, then with the transformation of the Kop into an all-seater stand, and finally in 1998 with the erection of a second tier on the Anfield Road Stand.
As Klopp's squad competes for excellence both domestically and internationally, the increased demand for tickets has never been more prominent. A bigger Anfield stadium is eagerly anticipated, with roughly 5,000 of the additional seats designated for general admission and 2,000 reserved for new hospitality lounges. There are approximately 20,000 supporters on a season-ticket waiting list, which has been closed to new additions since 2011.
This marks the second phase of the redevelopment of Anfield, following the unveiling of the new £110 million Main Stand in 2016. The stand added an extra 8,500 seats and revitalized the surrounding region. Prior to the onset of the pandemic two years ago, it had increased match-day revenues from £62 million to £81 million per season. With the final stage of the redevelopment nearing completion, Anfield will be among the largest club grounds in the UK, with a capacity of 61,000.
