West Ham United today announced a shocking agreement with Chelsea over a London Stadium share. After finally receiving the planning permission that Chelsea has been longing for from Kensington and Chelsea, they’ve finally got the green light to start constructing their new stadium in Earls Court.
After the green light was given, Chelsea immediately contacted David Sullivan privately to discuss what it would take to strike a stadium share deal.
The meeting between them, we’ve been told, lasted around the two-hour mark in which a gentleman’s agreement had been reached by the end.
Following that meeting, Sullivan took it to the board and rather unsurprisingly, the majority of the other board members were shocked that this idea was even to be considered, but due to the nature of the gentleman’s agreement, Sully had ‘invertedly’ forced them to accept due to the nature of the ‘agreement’ he’d struck earlier on in the day.
An announcement from the club is imminent but is currently pending as both of the clubs are awaiting Premier League approval for this deal. The approval is expected to come soon as there’s nothing to suggest it couldn’t happen as the London Stadium is already viewed as Premier League quality.
The stadium share will begin for the 2025/26 Premier League campaign and is set to last two years, yet it could last a further year depending on how quickly Chelsea’s new ground can be approved to play in once built.
The agreement Sully struck is set to earn West Ham United £5,000,000 per season.. surprise surprise! Sully only has an eye for money.
