Leeds United reveal first pictures of new 53,000-capacity Elland Road
Yorkshire Evening Post
|April 29, 2025
Leeds United have revealed images of the proposed 53,000-capacity Elland Road Stadium redevelopment and invited fans and the public to view an exhibition.
The club outlined plans in September 2024 to improve the stadium and increase the capacity to over 50,000.
Premier League status was always central to the prospect of developing the ground and, with promotion secured last week, the executive board of Leeds City Council met to discuss key proposals, including the start of legal agreements to sell council land to Leeds United and the entering into of a Memorandum of Understanding with the Lowy Family Group, Leeds United's development partner, to consider the wider regeneration potential for 30 acres of council-owned land around the stadium.
