Chelsea look set to finish the Premier League season with new owners at the helm after Roman Abramovich’s announcement that he is looking to sell the club.
The Russian billionaire has been forced to cash in on the west London club, where he has been owner since 2003, due to the threat of sanctions being handed down by the UK government.
Abramovich released a statement on Wednesday to confirm that he had made the difficult decision to put the club up for sale, bringing an end to his 19-year tenure as owner.
