Finn Harps have announced that funding of €750,000 has been approved to commence working at the new stadium at Stranorlar.
The Donegal club's shareholders ratified plans for a new ground two years ago, which led to local developers Joseph McMenamin and Sons winning the tender process.
It is hoped that they will begin development in the coming months.
Harps see the move from Finn Park as 'critical' to their future and their ability to stay on the right side of the UEFA Licencing system.
In addition to their stadium plans, the club is also looking to cultivate a thriving youth development structure.
Harps drew 1-1 away to Limerick 37 last night and currently lie fifth in the eircom League of Ireland First Division.
