Since Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital took the reins at Chelsea in 2022, the club has been grappling with a monumental decision—redevelop Stamford Bridge or move to a brand-new site. The iconic stadium has long been a symbol of Chelsea’s success, but modernisation is essential if the Blues are to compete at the highest level both domestically and in Europe. However, three years on, no concrete decision has been made.
Boehly has hinted at his personal preference to “build something new”, suggesting that a departure from Stamford Bridge may be the most viable option. In a recent interview with Bloomberg in Hong Kong, Boehly addressed the dilemma head-on, highlighting the complexity of building within London.
