Roman Abramovich’s future as Chelsea owner is in doubt, after a Swiss billionaire claimed he has been offered the chance to buy the club.
Hansjorg Wyss told a Swiss newspaper that Abramovich “wants to get rid of Chelsea quickly” after the threat of sanctions was raised in Parliament.
Abramovich gave “stewardship and care” of Chelsea to its foundation trustees following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
Chelsea is yet to respond to the claims of 86-year-old Wyss.
The west London club have always previously denied reports that they are up for sale.
