Manchester City aim to take on the biggest teams in Europe with an exciting new Etihad Stadium expansion.
The newly-announced plans claim the Etihad's capacity will increase from its current 53,400 to over 60,000, and include a new museum and entertainment zone.
A giant new fan zone is plannedA redeveloped north stand will increase capacity
A consultation process will now take place, with the club inviting feedback from supporters, after which they hope to begin a three-year construction process.
The increased capacity would leave City with the fourth biggest stadium in the Premier League behind Manchester United, Arsenal and West Ham's capacities.
The extra seating would come mainly from a new tier above the north stand, but the plans are about more than just extra seating.
City claim they want the Etihad to be a 'year-round entertainment and leisure destination' due to new projects around the stadium.
These include a new 3,000 capacity fan zone, which would include food and drink outlets, a club shop, museum and hotel.
The club have also outlined plans for a workspace for start-ups, and said they plan to address travel measures for the stadium to improve sustainability.

upporters have been invited to attend an exhibition showcasing the plans at the stadium throughout March.
