Wrexham have released images of their new plans for a Kop stand at their home ground, the Stok Racecourse.
The "unique designs" for the new 5,500-capacity stand are said to create an atmospheric home and become an iconic destination for fans, international visitors and the local community.
The stand, designed by leading sports and entertainment architects Populous, includes the provision for safe standing, hospitality and accessible seating and will be a prominent focal point of the area visible from the city centre.
It will be fully compliant with UEFA Category 4 stadium requirements and along with adjustment to the pitch, and other technical requirements, this will enable the Stok Racecourse Stadium to host the UEFA European under-19 Championship final tournament matches in 2026, and other international matches in the future.
"The new Kop Stand marks a special moment in the history of the STōK Cae Ras," Wrexham's chief executive officer Michael Williamson said.
"The distinctive design of the new Kop Stand embodies the history and heritage of Wrexham -- rooted in the local community creating a timeless, authentic piece of civic architecture that complements other landmarks.
"It will provide an iconic landmark standing at the gateway to the city giving it a true sense of place.
"The stand reflects the key role the football club can play in the rejuvenation and redevelopment of the city through its role in the Wrexham Gateway Project.
"The upgrading of facilities to meet UEFA Category 4 specifications are central to our wider vision of bringing international sport back to Wrexham and the benefit this will bring to the local community of hosting these events in North Wales."
