At least three parties are set to bid for ownership of Chelsea in the wake of Roman Abramovich 's decision to hand over control of the club.
The Russian billionaire announced on Saturday that he will step back from his duties as owner and, for the first time since he bought the Blues for £140million in 2003, is reportedly considering a sale.
Following Russia 's invasion of Ukraine, Abramovich emerged as one many high-profile businessmen told that they should face further sanctions in the UK, before he quickly handed over "stewardship" at Stamford Bridge.
