In the U.S. privately funded new stadium construction is very rare. In the NFL, Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, MA, Sun Life Stadium (formerly Joe Robbie Stadium) in Miami, Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, TX. The new Yankee Stadium in the Bronx, NY... Billionaire owners who convince and juice local and state government politicians and agencies to work collectively (shake down the public coffers) to get a palace built. I don't profess to know how the Liverpool City Counsel works nor do I know which construction firms are to be considered. What I do believe however is the Fenway Group doesn't appear to have the deep pockets necessary to pull off the entire effort.
They are spread out on baseball, NASCAR, and John Henry's core business commodities trading is highly speculative and volatile. Get used to a refurb of Anfield and be grateful for that!
