Roman Abramovich will reportedly remain as Chelsea's owner despite his dramatic decision to relinquish "stewardship and care" of the club, but the Russian's announcement has prompted a number of questions about what might happen in the longer term.
The 55-year-old made the announcement as he attracts attention amid Russia's invasion of Ukraine, with British MP Chris Bryant calling for Chelsea's long-time boss to be banned from owning the club.
Abramovich's statement has already attracted criticism, with Piers Morgan attacking his "weasel words" and Micah Richards saying "After the last couple of days and just say you’re handing it over to charity, I think it’s poor".
