Chelsea could be set for Stamford Bridge name change as sponsors eye 'long-term deal'

Allianz wants to add Stamford Bridge to their group of football stadiums and is interested in securing a long-term deal with Chelsea.

The German insurance company notably sponsors the homes of Bayern Munich and Juventus, and now has its sights set on making a mark on English football. It's been reported by the Daily Mail that Allianz had been in talks with Chelsea over becoming their principal shirt sponsor from next season.

Online casino Stake is set to win the race and spend one year as Chelsea's shirt sponsor before new rules preventing gambling companies from doing so come into play.
