Chelsea news: Thomas Tuchel's furious reaction as club 'braced' for takeover bid

Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel reacted furiously after being repeatedly asked about the club's owner Roman Abramovich.

The Russian billionaire has announced plans to step back and hand the "stewardship and care" of the club to its charitable foundation.

He is now reportedly considering selling the club, with Chelsea said to be 'braced' for bids in the coming weeks.

But the club's manager Tuchel lost his cool after being asked about the turmoil surrounding the club ahead of their FA Cup 5th Round encounter with Luton Town.

And Kepa Arrizabalaga's girlfriend has responded to the "unfair" penalty shootout during Sunday's Carabao Cup final against Liverpool.

Here are Mirror Football's latest Chelsea headlines.
