Leeds United have announced plans to increase the capacity of their Elland Road stadium to 53,000.
The project will see the home of the Championship side expanded by more than 15,000 seats, with the work to be carried out over an extended period in order to limit disruption to the stadium in the meantime.

Paraag Marathe, Leeds chairman and president of the club’s owners, 49ers Enterprises, said: “We recognise how important Elland Road is to the Leeds United fans and the wider community.
“The opportunity to refresh a century-old stadium, coupled with the legacy of Leeds United, is unprecedented.
“Our plans reinforce our commitment to the long-term success of the club and I am excited that we are going to be able to welcome thousands more supporters to every game, in a stadium that retains the unique atmosphere of Elland Road.”
Leeds were relegated from the Premier League in 2023.
