Chelsea’s new 60,000 seater stadium plans hit by more delays due to ‘spiralling’ construction costs in fresh setback for Todd Boehly and Co.

Chelsea’s ambitious plans for a new 60,000-seater stadium have reportedly hit another major snag, with ‘spiralling’ construction costs putting the project on hold. The Blues are yet to submit formal proposals for the redevelopment or relocation, with costs now estimated to run into the billions. The delay is a blow to Todd Boehly’s hopes of boosting matchday revenue and keeping pace with the club’s rivals.
