Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich intends to sell the club after 19 years of formal ownership, in the wake of the Cold War between Russia and Ukraine.
The Russian businessman announced that he would not ask Chelsea to repay any loans.
He confirmed that he will establish a charitable association in which all net proceeds from among the club will be donated to the benefit of the victims of the war in Ukraine.
And the official Chelsea website published a statement today, Wednesday, from Abramovich, which said the following:” I would like to address the speculation in the media over the past few days regarding the ownership of Chelsea FC.
As I mentioned before, I have always taken decisions with the interest of the club, in the current situation I have decided to sell the club, as I believe this is in the interest of the club, the fans, and the staff as well as the club’s sponsors and partners.
Selling the club will not be rushed but will follow due process. I will not ask for any loans to be repaid. This has never been about work or money for me, but with my passion for the game and the club.
