Chelsea in the process of being sold by the owner, Roman Abramovich. Judging by the royal Abramovich made The Bluesthis is not good news for the fans.
Abramovich has announced the sale of Chelsea. This is to save the west London club from potential problems due to their relationship with Russian President Vladimir Putin, who ordered the invasion of Ukraine.
As is known, Abramovich is at risk of being affected by financial sanctions imposed by various countries, including Britain, on Russia and people close to its government. He is in danger of having an asset freeze.
Selling Chelsea was definitely not Abramovich’s wish, but he was under pressure. Currently there are a number of interested people who come forward, the strongest potential buyers while being Hansjorg Wyss and Todd Boehly.
Former Chelsea manager Antonio Conte also spoke about this. For him it would feel very strange Chelsea without Abramovich, who has been so generous for the club.
Chelsea’s success so far is clearly a big contribution to Abramovich, who is willing to spend money out of his own pocket.
“It feels very strange because he was the owner for many years. Chelsea in that period won a lot of trophies. Surely this is an amazing period for Chelsea,” said Conte, who is now managing Tottenham Hotspur.
“Now you hear he wants to sell the club. Of course it’s not good news for Chelsea fans, because of what he has done in this period,” he was quoted as saying. Metro.
