Mooted as far back as 2017, the club’s proposed move to a new 15,000 capacity stadium at Camperdown would also see the development of a hotel and a crematorium.

Space would also be designated for up to 70 flats and 140 houses to the north of the site.



In the video update, both managing director John Nelms and technical director Gordon Strachan look back at the progression of the club up to this point and the next steps.

Mr Nelms says “it is time to get this project off the ground” and adds that the club has “engaged project consultants” to set the ball rolling with Dundee City Council.

No timescale for completion of the project was given.



John Nelms said: “We have had people working on this for so long, working hard for so long. We have the elements here with the stadium, we have a crematorium, we have housing, you have flats, you have commercial space and we have a hotel. And you have a new training facility for Dundee Football Club. All these elements coming together are going to make it an exciting project for the city.

“It is time. It is really time for us to get going. It is time for us to take it to the next step and take it to fruition.

“So we have engaged the project consultants, they are now going to be engaging the city council.

“I’ll now be engaging all the leaders in the community. It’s time to get this project off the ground and get something in Dundee, for Dundee, that can be a jewel to bring excitement and energy to the city.”
