Burnley FC manager Brian Laws has welcomed plans to redevelop Turf Moor.
Clarets chief executive Paul Fletcher has proposed a 'Premier Plan' in conjunction with Burnley Borough Council and The Prince's Charities.
The proposals – which Fletcher expects will take two to three years to complete – would see a "StadiArena" stand erected in place of the David Fishwick Stand at Turf Moor.
This stand would be used to stage concerts and conferences in addition to its football use.
Laws priased the news as further evidence that the club is heading in the right direction.
"Any football club that stands still is going backwards for me and this is just another large step forward for this football club," Laws said.
"Regeneration, change and progress are what this football club has been striving for a long, long time and the fact is we are now very close to it."
