Property developer and prospective new Chelsea owner Nick Candy had told the club’s fans he’ll give them a seat on the board if he takes control of the Blues.
The 49-year-old boyhood Chelsea fan is in talks with financiers about his pitch to buy the club ahead of the deadline for offers at the end of this week.
Candy is reportedly willing to make his proposal of fans having a ‘golden share’ central to his bid for Chelsea, while he is also offering to provide short-term funding to the club if they face a cash problem following the sanctioning of Roman Abramovich.
