CHELSEA could move into a futuristic new stadium if they leave Stamford Bridge.
SunSport exclusively revealed the Blues face SIX YEARS away from their home if they go through with ambitious redevelopment plans.

However if Chelsea do go down the path of building a new state-of-the-art ground they could have an exciting project on their hands.
They could look to model the work on Real Madrid’s Bernabeu with a curved asymmetrical circle.
Manchester United are said to have looked at the Bernabeu as they plan to construct a new Old Trafford, and AI has produced a number of ideas for Chelsea.
Some look strikingly similar to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with a glass-panelled exterior and shiny finish.
While one imagines a perfectly round structure with a retracted roof that gives little cover for the fans seated below, and looks a little like a flying saucer.
Another takes an oval shape and includes just two tiers of seating, with most of the designs a little bigger than that.
Another interesting take on Chelsea’s potential new ground is a stadium made out of wood – an idea that has been proposed at Forest Green by their eco-friendly owner Dale Vince.

Chelsea want to build a new 60,000-capacity ground to keep up with their rivals commercially, and that could mean redeveloping every stand at Stamford Bridge.
Architect Janet Marie Smith, who has worked on a host of stadium renovations in America, has been hired to oversee the monumental task of rebuilding Chelsea’s famous ground.
Smith’s projects include Baltimore’s Oriole Park, Atlanta’s Olympic Stadium, the Boston Red Sox’s Fenway Park and Dodger Stadium in LA.
