Chelsea chief executive Peter Kenyon has admitted the club would like to play in a bigger ground.
The capacity at Stamford Bridge currently stands at 42,055 and Chelsea are keen to match the likes of Manchester United and Arsenal in the crowd stakes.
Kenyon admitted ideally the club would be able to expand Stamford Bridge as he believes location is more important than size.
"We would like to have a stadium where we could have 55 or 60,000," Kenyon told Sky Sports News.
"You look at the impact at Manchester United yesterday (Sunday) with 75,000 people there or the new Emirates Stadium which is fantastic with 60,000.
"But we're not going to give up space for location, because location is what Chelsea is all about and finding a site of 20 acres which is what you need to develop is not that easy.
"So until we find out definitively that we can't develop Stamford Bridge or find somewhere else then that's where we're going to be."
