EFL club face being forced to LEAVE iconic ex-Premier League stadium and have been ‘offered’ two sites for £100m ground

CHARLTON ATHLETIC have been offered two potential sites for a new stadium - as they face the prospect of being turfed out of The Valley.

The League One side has called the iconic stadium home for over 100 years.

Belgian businessman Roland Duchatelet, the club's controversial former owner, currently owns The Valley.

Charlton signed a 15-year stadium lease with Duchatelet when he still had control of the club.

He sold the Addicks to East Street Investments in 2020.

Last year the club changed hands again, with Global Football Partners now in charge.

The current ownership group are looking to renegotiate the terms of the lease, which has 11 years remaining.

According to , the club have held "positive talks" with Duchatelet, with an eventual view to buying the ground outright.

But should any deal not materialise, Charlton could be forced to move out of The Valley within the next decade.

The club has been offered two potential sites for a new stadium on the Thames by property developers.

The City AM report claims a new stadium is "projected to cost at least £100m".

A Charlton spokesperson said: "The Valley is the home of Charlton Athletic and the club have no plans to leave the stadium.

"We have a medium-term lease on the stadium and our only interest is securing the club’s long-term tenure at The Valley."

Charlton currently sit 12th in League One with 19 points from their opening 13 games.

Boss Nathan Jones is looking to get the Addicks back into the second tier for the first time since 2020.

Charlton enjoyed a seven-season spell in the Premier League between 2000 and 2008.

They have since bounced between the Championship and League One, with ownership issues dominating the club's past few years.
