Stricken rugby club Wasps could move to Kent in their search for a new home.
After entering administration and being removed from the Premiership last year and sent to the bottom of the English pyramid, the historic club are in talks with Sevenoaks District Council over a move to the south east.
A statement on Monday outlined plans for a new stadium in Kent, with a short-term stay at Sixways in Northampton on the cards.
Wasps said in a statement: "Having faced significant challenges with regulation and funding, the club has persisted with its determination to revive Wasps at the highest possible level.
"As the development progresses through its planning stages, Wasps will be actively exploring temporary facilities to underpin its operations in Kent.
"Whilst determined to establish a base in the south-east of England, the club has also agreed an option of utilising Worcester Warriors' Sixways ground for both training and playing purposes, without in any way replacing Worcester Warriors RFC and indeed committed to assisting their return to competitive rugby."
A prospective move to Kent would mark another geographical shift for the club, who played most of their 156-year history in London, before moving to High Wycombe in 2002 and Coventry in 2014.
