"The maximum capacity for an expanded Anfield is 55,000, we can't get above that," he said.
"We used that as the base rate for the study into the new stadium, but that didn't mean we intended to build a 55,000 seater stadium. The reality is it will be around 60,000 capacity."
"I'm aware it's something that the fans will view positively. There is still a phenomenal amount of work going on but that is the capacity we are leaning towards."
A planning application will submitted within the next few weeks and the new ground could be ready for the start of the 2005/06 season.
