The club are continuing to develop the stadium this summer and work is already underway.
Leeds hope to make Elland Road into a UEFA Category 4 stadium going forward. There club aim to increase the stadium capacity from 37,645 to 53,000 in line with the growth of their fanbase.

And they have done exactly that this summer, having made ambitious transfers. Leeds finished 14th last season, and have already added Harry Wilson, Tarik Muharemovic and are close to sealing a move for James Trafford.
