Chelsea have cancelled their Premier League victory parade which was due to take place on Sunday .
The Premier League champions were due to show off their trophy in an
open-top bus on Sunday, the day after they face Arsenal in the FA Cup
final, but are now cancelling the event over security concerns in the
wake of the Manchester Arena attack.
The club said in a statement that they feel it would be 'inappropriate'
for the celebration to take place as they offered their 'heartfelt
condolences' to those affected by Monday night's attack.
Chelsea's players will also wear black armbands in Saturday's FA Cup
final and the club will make a donation to a fund supporting the
victims.
