What will Chelsea FC supporters first remember this week in April 2022? The elimination, this Tuesday in the quarter-finals of the Champions League of the London club, defending champion, by Real Madrid after an exceptional match by its intensity? Or the revelation, expected this Thursday, of the candidates for the takeover of the “Blues”? The operation, which is unlike any other, indeed takes a step forward on April 14, the deadline for submitting final offers. Four candidates should submit their offer to the investment bank Raine, mandated by the billionaire Roman Abramovich.
Targeted by sanctions against Russia, the reputed oligarch close to Vladimir Putin has put the club in which he had invested in 2003 up for sale. But the British government has set its conditions: Roman Abramovich will not be able to profit from this sale, if although the £3billion in revenue it could generate should go to charities.
