Chelsea closer to Stamford Bridge upgrade
Jan 11, 2017 - 11:26 PM Chelsea have overcome the latest hurdle to redeveloping its Stamford Bridge stadium and allowing the Premier League leaders to catch up with London rivals Arsenal and Tottenham.Chelsea says in a statement Wednesday that the local authority's planning committee has given permission for the redevelopment to go ahead.
Chelsea has decided to turn its existing home into a 60,000-seater stadium rather than relocating in west London.
That will eventually give Chelsea a similar capacity to Arsenal's Emirates Stadium and the new venue for Tottenham being built next to its current White Hart Lane home.
