Newcastle United co-owner Amanda Staveley has revealed there was an opportunity to purchase Chelsea Football Club in the past.
With the news that Roman Abramovich has put the west London club up for sale, Staveley was asked about the ongoing situation and she opened up on the opportunity to take over the Blues in the past, but ended up on Tyneside.
Staveley said at the Financial Times Business of Football Summit: "We had the opportunity to look at Chelsea - a wonderful club - but there was only ever one club for us, Newcastle."
