Chelsea must submit bid for Earl’s Court or risk missing out on stadium chance
Club look at Earl’s Court as possible site for new groundCounter proposal by developers does not include stadium
Chelsea risk missing out on the chance to move to Earl’s Court if they fail to submit a bid for the site quickly enough.
Increasing Stamford Bridge’s 40,343 capacity has been a key issue since the Todd Boehly-Clearlake Capital takeover in 2022 but the difficulty of redeveloping the ground has led the board to look for a new home. It is understood Chelsea have held talks in recent months with various figures who will have a say over the future of the Earl’s Court site.
