The race to buy Chelsea continues to rumble on with final bids expected to be submitted by the end of next week. Roman Abramovich has put the side up for sale and four candidates remain, including American billionaire Todd Boehly's consortium.
Alongside Hansjorg Wyss, Boehly was one of the first candidates to throw his hat into the ring to take over the Blues from Abramovich. But three rival bids remain in the running with the Ricketts family, Steve Pagliuca and Sir Martin Broughton all looking to take control.
Two of Boehly's rivals, the Ricketts family and Steve Pagliuca, have moved to bolster their bids in recent weeks. Ken Griffin has joined the former's bid while Pagliuca has approached former Disney chief Bob Iger for support in his pursuits.
