Liverpool’s new £50million stunning training centre is expected to open in November.
The state-of-the-art strctre will be called the AXA Training Centre after the insurance company won the naming rights.
The new development, based in Kirkby, will include three full-size pitches, goalkeeping and warm-up areas, along with two gyms, a sports hall, pool, hydrotherapy complex and specialist sports rehabilitation suites.
Manager Jurgen Klopp will also have a shiny new office with a long balcony, allowing him to overlook all the training pitches.
The move brings an end to their Melwood base, which has housed Liverpool stars for the last 70 years.
Liverpool chief executive officer Billy Hogan said: “The expansion of AXA’s partnership to include the naming rights of the club’s new Training Centre makes perfect sense.

“We have already seen their emphasis on driving health, wellbeing, confidence and self-belief, and so deepening their relationship in the field of training makes this partnership a great fit.
“We’re pleased to have AXA on board as we start this new chapter at the club and are proud to expand our relationship with a brand that shares our common values and aspirations both on and off the pitch.”
