Head of South Korean company C&P Sports, Catalina Kim, has previously hinted that she has a keen interest in Chelsea amid her consortium bid with Nick Candy to buy the Blues.
Following the deadline for bids passing on Friday, all the Chelsea players, like the supporters, are anxiously and eagerly anticipating any final decision which could come at any time from the Raine Group. The likes of Todd Boehly's consortium, the Ricketts Family's collaboration with Ken Griffin, and Candy are the so called front runners in the takeover race, but other interested parties such as the Saudi Media Group are still firmly under consideration.
Whilst the Raine Group prepare for the next stage of the whole takeover process, manager Thomas Tuchel and co will be relieved to be on a much needed international break following a tough run of fixtures - something they have answered in emphatic style with six wins on the bounce. Off the pitch though, one group looking to find form is C&P Sports, who have joined forces with Candy to help the businessman find the funds to buy the club. The move has reportedly resulted in the bid by the property tycoon being raised to around the £2billion mark.
