I think this one might develop. At the moment it looks like a delay. However many reports say Abramovic couldn’t operate without being close to Putin. MPs have been discussing the need to end Russian dirty money entering the UK. Following the spy poisoning relationships are at an all time low. The closure of the British Council in Moscow by Russia has really upset our government as its the one organisation that fosters better links between the two countries. It might not be so surprising if we blocked the highest profile Russian businessman from coming to the UK. However it could become big news - not least for Chelsea!

I'm sure he won't be struggling for suitors if he has to sell Chelsea though

Its still nice to know that at least we can pee on his cavair!

I imagine Putin's mate can afford to drive something a little nicer than a Vauxhall Cavalier.

Should never have been allowed to buy an English club in the first place!

Where do you draw the line though ? countless clubs are now owned by Arabs, Thai's, Americans ....can't put the genie back in the bottle.
