I would like to address the speculation in media over the past few days in relation to my ownership of Chelsea FC. As I have stated before, I have always taken decisions with the Club’s best interest at heart. In the current situation, I have therefore taken the decision to sell the Club, as I believe this is in the best interest of the Club, the fans, the employees, as well as the Club’s sponsors and partners.


The sale of the Club will not be fast-tracked but will follow due process. I will not be asking for any loans to be repaid. This has never been about business nor money for me, but about pure passion for the game and Club. Moreover, I have instructed my team to set up a charitable foundation where all net proceeds from the sale will be donated. The foundation will be for the benefit of all victims of the war in Ukraine. This includes providing critical funds towards the urgent and immediate needs of victims, as well as supporting the long-term work of recovery.

Please know that this has been an incredibly difficult decision to make, and it pains me to part with the Club in this manner. However, I do believe this is in the best interest of the Club.

I hope that I will be able to visit Stamford Bridge one last time to say goodbye to all of you in person. It has been a privilege of a lifetime to be part of Chelsea FC and I am proud of all our joint achievements. Chelsea Football Club and its supporters will always be in my heart.

Thank you,

Roman

Damn, we’re losing the best owner we’ve ever had.
I like that flex though about not caring about the money

He has to leave. I am one for players getting all the moneys, but Mbappe is one of the few players that happens to be on the "Best of all time" path. He cant achieve that at PSG imo.

If he’s bringing the first CL to Paris, he can achieve that here easily. He already has a World Cup before he turned 20. Can he surpass Di Stefano, Zidane and CR7 in Madrid? Maybe, maybe not. But they’ve done it all and they contributed to the powerhouse that Madrid is. None of them is bigger than the institution. Mbappé in Paris can get rid of all the players that came before him and be the ultimate face of the club.
