Liverpool have reversed their decision to lock in ticket price rises.
Plans to increase the cost of season and general admission tickets at Anfield for the next three years with the rate of inflation sparked outrage from fans.
Several supporter groups took direct action which saw flags withdrawn from The Kop for successive Premier League games amid in-ground protests.
Although the Reds confirmed that next season’s pricing structure will still see a 3% inflationary increase, they have rowed back on the three-year lock-in.
Prices will be frozen for the 2027/28 campaign while any future increases are set to be taken in consultation with the club’s own Supporters Board.
Anfield chiefs also announced on Thursday that a dedicated young adult’ section, for fans up to the age of 24, housed in the Anfield Road Stand.
Spirit of Shankly, one of the fan groups who protested against the previous rises, welcomed the compromise from the Premier League champions.
“Following supporter protests at a locked-in multi-year deal, and conversations with the supporters board over the past few days, the club has pledged a new proposal that will allow us to examine thoroughly long-term solutions surrounding fan affordability and access,” read an SOS statement.
“We have asked Liverpool that it now works with us to explore alternative ways to generate revenue rather than ticket price rises during this time [the next two seasons], to which it has publicly committed.
“We understand disappointment at next season’s increase in ticket prices will remain for some, but there will be none the season after and we want to assure fans we will continue talks with the club and do our best to find other ways to prevent future rises.
“We would like to thank those at LFC who have listened to us and engaged with us, not all club hierarchies would have done the same. And we look forward to working with them to find future paths that benefit all.
“We also want to thank you for backing us, for helping with handing out leaflets, for protesting and making sure your voices were heard. We could not have reached this point without you.”
