Chelsea have held talks over playing at Craven Cottage, Twickenham and Wembley as Todd Boehly’s ownership group plots an expensive redevelopment of Stamford Bridge.
As part of their £4.25billion takeover of Chelsea last year, Boehly’s consortium promised to provide £1.75billion to fund "investments in Stamford Bridge, the academy, the women's team and Kingsmeadow”. They are now exploring ways to redevelop Stamford Bridge, which lags behind Chelsea’s rivals with a capacity of around 41,000.
The club wants to build a new 60,000-seat stadium on the same site which has been their home since 1905. But that is easier said than done, with a huge number of problems needing to be overcome.
