Chelsea midfielder N'Golo Kante has revealed that the players were not prepared for Roman Abramovich's announcement that he would be selling the club.
Abramovich took the decision to put the Blues up for sale on Wednesday evening, confirming the move in a statement released less than an hour before kick-off in their FA Cup fifth round with Luton.
The Russian will have no doubt been relieved to see Thomas Tuchel's side come from behind twice to win 3-2 and book their place in the quarter-finals.
