Everton’s Hill Dickinson Stadium is one of the best arenas in world football.

Moving away from Goodison Park was emotional, but it was for the betterment of Everton, as the new 52,000-seater has been transformative for the club’s finances.

The Toffees earn roughly an extra £40m-a-year in revenue at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, with increased attendances and commercial opportunities.

Be honest… which grounds do you think are up there with Everton’s? 🤩

Everton could increase the capacity at the Hill Dickinson Stadium

It has been reported that Everton could increase the Hill Dickinson Stadium’s capacity before the European Championships in 2028.

The Toffees are hosting five games at the Euros, so there are plans to expand the ground to its maximum capacity of 62,000.

Indeed, that will be dependent on the success of the football club, as relegation would likely end those plans.

However, it seems Moyes’ side are looking up rather than down, with European football very much the goal.

Moyes has made it clear he wants Europe, and they’re currently well-placed to achieve it this season.

Everton reside in eighth place, just three points behind seventh-placed Brentford, so there’s a lot to play for in the remainder of the season.

The supercomputer has predicted the Toffees to narrowly miss out on Europe this season.
