Thomas Tuchel discusses Sir Lewis Hamilton and Serena Williams amid Chelsea takeover interest

Thomas Tuchel has refused to be drawn on Sir Lewis Hamilton and Serena Williams' interest in being part of the takeover bid to buy Chelsea Football Club. The sports megastars are said to be investing in Sir Martin Broughton's consortium to buy the west London club.

Hamilton, a seven-time Formula One world champion, and Williams, a 23-time tennis Grand Slam champion, are both investors backing Broughton's attempt to acquire Chelsea. Hamilton confessed his interest in buying the club during a press conference ahead on Friday.

The Mercedes AMG F1 driver said: "Ultimately, I'm a sporting fan. It's the biggest sport in the world, and Chelsea is one of the biggest clubs in the world and one of the most successful. When I heard about this opportunity, I was like: 'Wow, this is one of the greatest opportunities to be a part of something."
