We’re delighted to welcome former Everton striker Kevin Campbell as our exclusive columnist. Each week the former Toffees captain will be giving his views on the biggest talking points at Goodison Park…
Kevin Campbell believes the fantasy is becoming a reality for Everton as they plan to start work on the new stadium.
The Bramley Moor structure is set to start this year, and will be complete by the 2024/25 season in Merseyside.
Campbell insisted that Rafa Benitez has to start getting this side challenging for silverware, with the new stadium being built with that in mind.
Speaking exclusively to Goodison News, Campbell said, “It’s real then.
“It’s not just a fantasy, it’s what the project is all about. They’ve now got to get a team who is challenging to go into that stadium.
“24/25 season, it’s only three seasons away, so before you blink. Everton and Rafa Benitez need to hit the ground running and do well.”
Historic.
