Prospective Chelsea owner Sir Martin Broughton has vowed to address boss Thomas Tuchel’s future as a top priority if his consortium is successful in purchasing the Premier League club from Roman Abramovich.
The former Liverpool chairman’s group, which also features fellow Blues fan Lord Sebastian Coe, submitted their bid to The Raine Group, who are handling the sale for Chelsea, before the 9pm deadline on Friday.
They were one of up to 15 bidders to do so, with various consortia headed by, among others, British property mogul Nick Candy and LA Dodgers part-owner Todd Boehly, who are also well in the running.
