Chelsea to move to Twickenham?! Blues offered chance to play at home of English rugby during Stamford Bridge renovations

Premier League

Chelsea

Manchester United

<p>Sweeney has said that the RFU would be open to hosting Chelsea at Twickenham, should the Blues require a new venue. The Blues have long been looking into upgrading Stamford Bridge, and have also considered a potential move to Earl's Court, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/chelsea-stadium-blow-todd-boehly-warning-over-gbp500m-plan-new-home-at-earl-court/bltcf1b0eaf1d69d809#cs884f2cbf71427e30" target="_blank">although that plan has hit its own stumbling blocks</a>.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Sweeney has said that he has previously held talks with Premier League clubs over moving to Twickenham, but he does believe that local councils may place a few roadblocks in their way. </p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Sweeney said, per The Guardian: “It would allow it to happen. There have been conversations previously about possible Premiership [sic] clubs coming here. Richmond council, Richmond borough is more concerned about that. I just think in terms of impact on local residents, numbers of fans and so on they’re a little bit more sensitive. It may depend on which club it is. It would be a big financial number, I know Richmond borough would definitely have a conversation about that though.”</p>

WHAT BILL SWEENEY SAID

<p>Chelsea face Djurgarden on Thursday in the first leg of their Europa Conference League semi-final. The second leg, in a boost to Enzo Maresca's side, is at Stamford Bridge.</p>
