Former Man United defender Gary Neville agrees with the Raine Group's decision to snub Saudi Media's Chelsea takeover bid due to the 'human rights' issues that were highlighted during Newcastle's sale.
Todd Boehly and the Ricketts Group are just two of the interested parties who are in the running to buy Chelsea from owner Roman Abramovich, while Sir Martin Broughton's consortium is also under consideration.
The likes of Nick Candy's consortium coupled with others like the Saudi Media Group failed to make the cut with Raine due to the mitigating factors, although reportedly the main reason for Mohamed Al Khereiji's bid being snubbed was the timeframe of any deal that would have prevented a quick sale. Chelsea themselves need a quick sale and it's believed a deal could be done before the end of April.
