When you've already got a £300 million yacht, what else is there to spend your money on besides a private night club nestled under your football club's stadium?
According to the London Evening Standard, Abramovich is building a £20 million nightclub under Stamford Bridge's East Stand -- where the garish and overpriced Purple nightclub once was.
Work on the luxuriously appointed space, which has capacity for up to 500 “close friends”, is at an advanced stage and could be complete by December.
The venue — complete with a four-metre-high waterfall and hydraulically-operated stage — is likely to be mainly for the Russian billionaire's own entertainment use but could also be rented out for parties, according to Building magazine.
The centrepiece of the space, which will have what the source called “a gritty industrial design motif”, is a waterfall that will greet guests when they enter and descend the staircase at the entrance. It cost an estimated £150,000 to install.
Given the problems that arise when footballers go out at night, this could prove to be a genius way to corral and contain their exploits. Plus, when Roman makes it rain around club-goers who aren't "close friends" it can get messy.
