Chelsea planning move away from the
Bridge
LONDON, Nov 24 (Reuters) - English champions Chelsea are drawing up
plans to leave Stamford Bridge in a bid to rival Manchester United
and become the biggest club in the world, chief executive Peter
Kenyon said.
'By 2014 we want to be internationally recognised as the No.1
club,' Kenyon was quoted as saying by British newspapers on
Friday.
'I think it's pretty clear we can't get to where we want to here.
We have said we would like the stadium to be bigger, but that's not
going to be at the expense of moving to Brussels or Milton
Keynes.'
Before Sunday's clash at Premier League leaders United, Kenyon also
said manager Jose Mourinho was a key part of the club's long-term
plans and quashed any talk of him leaving. Mourinho said at the end
of last season that he had considered quitting.
