Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich dropped a bombshell on Saturday evening by declaring that he was handing over “stewardship and care” of the club to Chelsea ’s charitable foundation.
The 55-year-old Russian oligarch bought Chelsea in 2003 and his wealth has helped the club win every trophy available during his tenure.
Abramovich’s ownership of the Blues has come under the spotlight following Russia ’s invasion of Ukraine in the early hours of Thursday.
