Chelsea sale: Todd Boehly, Nick Candy and six more groups eyeing Roman Abramovich takeover

In the seven days since Roman Abramovich announced his intention to sell Chelsea, there has been no shortage of people making plenty of noise about their desire to take over.

Some groups, such as the consortium composed of Todd Boehly and Hansjorg Wyss, are to be taken seriously. Others, such as Conor McGregor, deserve laughter and nothing more.

While Abramovich said that the sale would not be fast-tracked in his statement last Wednesday there is a determination to get it all done quickly and next Tuesday, March 15, has been set as a deadline for offers to be submitted.
