Chelsea sale: Alan Shearer and Thomas Tuchel in agreement on what needs to happen next

Alan Shearer has agreed with Thomas Tuchel on what needs to happen next at Chelsea as the battle for ownership at Stamford Bridge rumbles on following sanctions placed against Roman Abramovich.

Final bids had to be submitted by Friday at 9pm with as many as 10 separate offers reportedly made for the Blues. Saudi Media and two consortiums led by billionaires Todd Boehly and Nick Candy respectively are three of the offers to have been confirmed but who will ultimately win the race appears to be no closer.

Despite being set to receive no money from the sale, Abramovich is set to have the final say on the successful bid. After Chelsea beat Middlesbrough to reach the semi-finals of the FA Cup on Saturday, manager Thomas Tuchel made it clear that he wanted the situation sorted quickly.
