Chelsea have accepted that their planning permission for a new stadium will pass on Tuesday and that they need to consider their options.
The club are going through financially uncertain times, due to the coronavirus outbreak, with the return of the Premier League still unknown. The Blues wanted to expand Stamford Bridge to a 60,000 seater stadium in a move that could have cost up to £1billion but that project will now be off for the foreseeable future.
In 2017, Chelsea were granted permission to begin knocking down buildings around their stadium over a period of three years, however, not one building has been demolished and the expiry date is March 31.
