Luton Town has shared updated images of a proposed new stadium after project plans were validated by the Luton Borough Council over the weekend.
The club submitted plans for a new 25,000-seater stadium last month after enjoying their first season in the Premier League last year, elevating the club to new levels both on and off the pitch. The Bedfordshire outfit, who were outside of the Football League as recently as 2014, has plans to establish themselves as a regular Premier League club in the future despite the disappointment of relegation in the previous campaign.
There was a chance they wouldn't be allowed to play in the Premier League at one stage, owing to their old ground, so these new plans look incredible

The Hatters have been playing at Kenilworth Road since 1905, with the 12,000-capacity stadium seeing football across five different divisions since the end of the Second World War.
Redevelopment work was recently completed on the stadium to ensure it was fit for Premier League action, increasing the capacity by 800 in March of this year just months before their relegation was confirmed.
However, plans for the new stadium were finalised last month, with a statement reading: "A new stadium at Power Court will increase the clubs chances of reaching and remaining in the Premier League.
"The physical constraints of Kenilworth Road, packed in among rows of terraced houses in Bury Park, make it impossible for the club to grow.
"In turn [this] limits the positive effect a successful Luton Town Football Club could have in helping to regenerate the town centre."
The club purchased the land to build the stadium on back in 2016, with plans to build an additional music venue and hotel as part of the development to help further improve the local area.

Successful completion of the new stadium would see Luton leapfrog three of the current Premier League sides in stadium capacity, with Fulham, Brentford and Bournemouth all currently below the 25,00 mark according to Statista.
The Hatters currently sit 15th on their return to the Championship after a difficult opening to the campaign.
