Chelsea's plans to move to a new stadium may have to wait until 2042, owner Todd Boehly has revealed.

The issue of a new stadium for the west London club has been a discussion point for some time now, with the English giants' home of Stamford Bridge arguably falling behind their rivals'.

Stamford Bridge is currently the ninth-largest Premier League venue in terms of capacity at around 41,000 which puts Chelsea over 33,000 seats behind league leaders Manchester United at Old Trafford, and 7,000 behind Championship side Sunderland.
