🇪🇺 Shakhtar Donetsk to host Champions League games at Stamford Bridge

Shakhtar Donetsk will play their four 2026/27 UEFA Champions League home matches at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea have confirmed, subject to final regulatory approvals.

The Ukrainian champions have been unable to use their own stadium since 2014, when Russia annexed the Donetsk region. The agreement with Chelsea — who did not qualify for European football themselves this season — gives Shakhtar a London base to fulfil their continental fixtures. The club evaluated alternative venues before settling on Stamford Bridge.
