Wasps have confirmed they will not use the former Sixways Stadium of Worcester Warriors as an interim home when the club is cleared to return to rugby.
Club legend Kenny Logan was hopeful they would initially choose Sixways, prior to relocating to Kent.
But a Wasps spokesperson said they will use a temporary base in the “Greater London and South East England Area”.
The spokesperson added: “Wasps have never considered Sixways as a permanent home and were involved only to facilitate an option to play at the stadium on a temporary basis.
“Our intended permanent home is now in Kent, where we are actively pursuing our new stadium.”
Wasps had £95m of debts when they went into administration, which cost them their place in the Premiership.
They have been working with Sevenoaks District Council to find the right site for a permanent new home and would like to enter a league next season, although chairman Chris Holland said in October that they may have to wait until 2025-26 to do so.
“All we are waiting for is a competition to join that will allow us to compete at the highest level – and one that shares our values,” said a statement issued on Monday.
Wasps were based at two London locations before moving to Wycombe in 2002, and then Coventry in 2014.
