Everton begin work today on new £500M stadium

Everton have kicked off work today on their new £500m stadium.

The Daily Mail reports an Everton-branded excavator was used to mark the "momentous day" of work commencing and now the plan is to have the waterfront home ready ahead of the 2024-25 season.

"This is a momentous day. One that we have all been waiting for," chairman Bill Kenwright said.

"To know that Evertonians and the people of this great city are together with us on this journey is a special feeling.

"Now that the work has commenced we can all watch our magnificent home as it comes to life."

Everton's chief executive Denise Barrett-Baxendale and Players' Life President Graeme Sharp also attended the ceremony to mark the start of a new era for the club.
