Chelsea have not ruled out redeveloping Stamford Bridge but are also exploring a potential move to Earl’s Court, with either option requiring the support of Chelsea Pitch Owners.
Chelsea are weighing up their long-term stadium plans, keeping open the possibility of redeveloping Stamford Bridge while also considering building a new ground at Earl’s Court. The club recently purchased a 1.2-acre site next to their current stadium, suggesting readiness for redevelopment, though any major move would require approval from Chelsea Pitch Owners (CPO), who hold the stadium’s freehold.
A move to Earl’s Court would allow Chelsea to remain at Stamford Bridge during construction, minimising disruption. With several rivals upgrading or building new stadiums, Chelsea risk falling behind if they take no action. The club has made no official comment on the matter at this stage.
