Manchester Arena Attack: Chelsea Cancel Premier League Title Parade In Honour Of Victims

Premier League champions, Chelsea have cancelled their Premier League victory parade, which was scheduled for Sunday, in the wake of the Manchester Arena attack.

The club say it would be "inappropriate" to go ahead with the parade after Monday's bombing killed 22 people, having planned an open-top bus tour with the trophy.

Chelsea said players will make a donation to a fund supporting victims of the attack, and will also wear black armbands during the final at Wembley.

A club statement read;

"Everyone associated with Chelsea Football Club offers our heartfelt condolences to those affected by Monday’s terror attack in Manchester. Our thoughts go out to all the victims, and their families and friends. 

"In light of these tragic events, we feel it is inappropriate to go ahead with the victory parade in London on Sunday.
