Juan Carlos I ended his visit to London yesterday at Stamford Bridge. The Emeritus arrived at the stadium an hour before the start of the second leg of the quarterfinals of the Champions League between Chelsea and Real Madrid.

The first "sighting" of Juan Carlos I occurred on Monday night at number 25 Albemarle Street, where the Oswald club has its discreet headquarters. He was seen and photographed leaving at 11pm with a small group of friends with whom he is supposed to have dinner.
