Fulham have submitted an application to the council to redevelop the Riverside stand at Craven Cottage.

The club have announced the plans following consultation with residents, supporters and other stakeholders involved in the redevelopment.

A press release from the club said: "The new proposal has incorporated a modern design that is sympathetic with the river and local area and best reflects the needs of the club, community and neighbourhood by delivering a wide range of benefits both now and for future generations."

Fulham plan to increase the capacity at Craven Cottage - currently 25,700 - as well as incorporate bars, restaurant and lounges into the new development.

The club had a previous planning application accepted in 2013, but the new proposals supersede those.
