Hi !

Assuming the needed repositories are enabled and correctly configured and you are having a working internet connection ...
sudo yum clean all | sudo rm -r /var/cache/yum | sudo yum update | sudo yum install google-chrome-stable

Good luck!

The solution for this is to have a file named google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm in the current directory.

So my question to you: What did you do to obtain google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm? And where did you store it?

I don't like the pipe signs in this command. I would replace them with semicolons or double-ampersands, e.g.

Code:

sudo yum clean all && sudo rm -r /var/cache/yum && sudo yum update && sudo yum install google-chrome-stable

And perhaps yum needs to be replaced by dnf, not sure.
