Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish has admitted that a redevelopment of the club’s Main Stand at Selhurst Park will bring ‘substantial investment’ into the borough of Croydon whilst also breathing ‘new life into Selhurst Park.’ On the news,
Steve Parish said: “I would like to thank Croydon Council for their continued support for the stadium redevelopment, which will bring substantial investment into the borough, as well as breathing new life into Selhurst Park. We would have liked to have started the project sooner, but our plans were delayed by financial constraints caused by the Covid pandemic. In the last couple of years our focus has been on bringing our exciting Academy development to fruition, but our attention will now turn to the stadium project. It has long been our ambition to extend and modernise Selhurst Park, making it a home fit for the 21st century. We are looking forward to getting started on the project. There is a lot of preparatory work to be done in the coming months and we will update on a likely timetable in due course”.
