Chelsea have had plans for their new £500m stadium on the site of Stamford Bridge approved by the Mayor of London.

The Blues' plans for the 60,000 capacity venue were approved at a Hammersmith & Fulham Council meeting in January, but still required the approval of city mayor Sadiq Khan.

They received that approval on Monday.
