The bad news in Chelsea does not stop. From the sports point of view, the club has just lost the final of the Carabao Cup with Liverpool; from the leadership, the management of Roman Abramovich seems to come to an end.
A few days ago it became known that the Russian businessman stepped aside in the management of the London team. With this, the Chelsea Foundation took control of everything. “I hand over the care and administration of Chelsea to the trustees of the Chelsea Foundation. I think they are in a better position than me to look after the interests of the club, the players, the coaching staff and the fans,” he said at the time.
Now, everything seems to indicate that in England this decision is not enough.
As reported by the renowned media ‘The Telegraph’, he assured that strong economic sanctions are coming against Abramovich due to the already well-known situation between his country, Russia, and Ukraine.
Precisely a compatriot of his and at the same time a colleague as an investor in English football (Everton), Alisher Usmanov, had his assets frozen and prohibited from making transfers within the European Union. If it’s hard for Everton, for Chelsea, which is a great player in the Premier and throughout Europe, it would be catastrophic.
Thus, ‘The Telegraph’ reported that Abramovich is considering the possibility of selling the team for the first time. He drastic measure, but that responds to all the pressure against him. For now there are three possible buyers and the offers will arrive in the next few days.
Change of scenery in the current European champion?
