Roman Abramovich is not making a snap decision on selling Chelsea despite being in a rush to offload the club to a prospective buyer.
A number of interested parties have made contact regarding a potential acquisition, with a consortium led by American billionaire Todd Boehly and Swiss businessman Hansjorg Wyss seemingly the frontrunners after lodging an initial bid.
Abramovich is now said to be mulling over their offer but is holding off committing further to a deal at the current stage as he waits to examine the finer details, despite the looming threat of potential sanctions from the UK government.
