Who is Josh Harris? Crystal Palace’s American billionaire linked with Chelsea bid

Crystal Palace shareholder Josh Harris has been linked with proposing a bid to Roman Abramovich by the end of the week in order to buy Chelsea.

The American billionaire is said to be among the interested parties, although he would not be willing to meet Abramovich’s £3billion asking price - adopting a similar stance as property developer Nick Candy.

A bid in the region of £2.5bn can be expected but due to Harris’ involvement with the Eagles, there would be one or two complications should he wish to pursue a Chelsea takeover bid.
