Ukrainian football club Shakhtar Donetsk has reached an agreement with Chelsea to play their Champions League home games at Stamford Bridge for the upcoming season. The arrangement provides a venue for the Ukrainian side's European matches while they continue to play away from their home stadium.
Shakhtar has been unable to use the Donbas Arena since 2014, when Russia annexed the Donetsk region. During their ongoing exile, the team has previously played domestic fixtures in Kyiv and Lviv.
