Wouldn’t outside the Club shop by the main entrance/players entrance be a more prominent position? Nobody could ignore it there.

It will be announced in a couple of weeks
I don’t think it’s where the plan suggests but can’t say until it’s publicly announced as lots going on

The silhouette also makes it look like it'll be the two of them holding up the cup together.

We go to the stadium via Tesco to the underpass wherein just past the railway entrance on the right you can see they are putting down the footings for the two statues which will be facing the stadium looking towards the shop.

Surely it should be where the players entrances is and the superstore there's enough space for it.

The only people that will see the statue are those who use the underpass.

no, it's pretty much on the corner of the south and east stands. well, the fresh slab of concrete is.
thousands will see it every game. as well as everyone who ever drives around the ground on a non-match day.
it's a good spot.

To be fair more people walk past the underpass to the south and east stands then past the main entrance and shop.
Well over half of pur fans sit/stand in those stands.
