Todd Boehly 'confident' Chelsea bid will be accepted despite Roman Abramovich sanctions

American billionaire Todd Boehly is reportedly feeling positive that a deal can be done for the acquisition of Chelsea, despite the sanctions against Roman Abramovich.

Chelsea's owner was added to the list of individuals sanctioned by the British Government on Thursday, severely restricting the club's business as they are forced to operate on a new licence until at least May 31.

Ticket sales have been frozen with only those holding season tickets eligible to attend home fixtures, while the club shop is staying closed.
