Chelsea are expected to get a new owner by the end of May ahead of Roman Abramovich’s departure.
Abramovich is expected to pave the way for a new owner after he was slapped with sanctions by the UK government.
A £1.6billion debt loaned to the club by the Russian oligarch is now understood to be standing in the way of a takeover bid by potential buyers.
Abramovich had initially announced he will forgo the mega amount but has since reportedly changed his mind.
