English Football Club Chelsea FC have announced they have submitted a bid to buy Battersea Power Station in Wandsworth, London with a view to building a new 60,000 capacity Stadium on the site.
The new Stadium would mean a move across the River Thames, with the proposed new location approximately three miles from their current home.

A statement on Chelsea’s official website said: “Chelsea Football Club can confirm to our fans that we have today submitted an offer, with our property development partner Almacantar, to acquire the 39-acre Battersea Power Station site.
“Battersea Power Station is one of London's most famous buildings and has the potential to become one of the most iconic Football Stadiums in the world.
“Our joint bid was submitted in accordance with the sales process established by the Joint Administrators for the site. The process could run for a number of months. We are not the only interested parties and there is no certainty that we will be successful.”
