Swiss Billionaire Confirms he Received a Bid to Buy Chelsea Football Club

Roman Abramovich's quest to sell off Chelsea Football Club has continued to make the headlines in the past couple of days.

Soy Sports News confirmed on its website on Wednesday, March 2nd, 2022, that a Swiss billionaire, Hansjorg Wyss has been offered a bid to buy the Blues. The Swiss confirmed the reports in an interview stating that the Russian is asking for too much more for the purchase of the club.

Abramovich is trying to sell all his villas in England, he also wants to get rid of Chelsea quickly. I and three other people received an offer on Tuesday to buy Chelsea from Abramovich. I have to wait four to five days now. Abramovich is currently asking far too much. You know, Chelsea owe him £2billion. But Chelsea has no money. As of today, we don't know the exact selling price. I can well imagine starting at Chelsea with partners. But I have to examine the general conditions first.But what I can already say: I'm definitely not doing something like this alone. If I buy Chelsea, then with a consortium consisting of six to seven investors.

It is understood that the Russian billionaire is keen in keeping the ownership of Chelsea but the pressure by the UK government to impose sanctions on Abramovich seem that make that desire a reality.
