The club has announced that the stadium is anticipated to be prepared by the start of the 2024/25 season. The stadium contractor, Laing O'Rourke, has initiated an inquiry and pledged to collaborate with the police and the Health and Safety Executive in order to ascertain the complete particulars of the incident.
The stadium is currently being constructed and is expected to be completed in time for the commencement of the 2024-25 season in August next year. With an estimated construction cost of approximately £500m, the stadium will have a seating capacity for nearly 53,000 spectators.
It will be known as the Everton Stadium.
Everton are due to move to the new stadium from their historic home, Goodison Park, where they have played their home games since 1892.
The Bramley-Moore Dock site was selected in 2018 after a public consultation with over 20,000 participants, resulting in 96 percent positive feedback. Nevertheless, UNESCO strongly criticized the plans, leading to Liverpool losing its World Heritage status due to various waterfront developments, including the construction of Everton's new stadium.
