Update: A lot of speculation in the British media right now. Time is
running against Swiss billionaire Hansjorg Wyss, who has said it will
take days for him and his Americans. But Abramovich has to move fast,
because he is threatened with sanctions.

Breaking: I'm told that American businessman Todd Boehly is behind the
consortium with Swiss billionaire Hansjorg Wyss. The two have already
teamed up in the past. For example, at the holding company Eldridge
Industries, which Boehly founded in 2015.

!!Correction: Wyss and Boehly are ready to bid in the region of 2 billion
pounds. It is believed that other interested parties are also in that
region.

Sources close to Todd Boehly tell me he's interested in Chelsea but not
for a 3bn asking price. Boehly's 2019 offer was closer to 2bn. American
doesn't feel Abramovich's valuation matches reality & believes Stamford
Bridge (older, less adaptable stadium) reduces overall package.

Breaking (1/2): I'm told that the American-Swiss consortium with Todd
Boehly and Hansjorg Wyss have found other partners. The team is complete!
Negotiations with Abramovich are already taking place. He still wants to
sell Chelsea quickly.

(2/2): The American-Swiss consortium is confident that progress can be
made over the weekend. Already on Monday a deal could be announced. That
depends on the negotiations over the weekend. Swiss billionaire Wyss will
now fly from Boston to California on Thursday afternoon.

(1/4) Some background on Swiss billionaire Hansjorg Wyss for my British
friends. He certainly likes sports but has not had a great affinity for
football. The fact that he could now be involved in a takeover of Chelsea
comes as something of a surprise.

(2/4) (3/4) On the other hand, Mr. Wyss is a true westerner by heart. If
it would be on him, neutral Switzerland would position itself even more
clear in the political West. I think that plays a real role here. Wyss is
driven by ideology. He sees Russian oligarch Abramovich with apparent
contacts to Putin, who is currently waging a war in Ukraine. Having the
chance now to rid Chelsea of such a person, for whom Wyss doesn't have
much respect, drives him. What does this mean for Chelsea?

(4/4) Wyss is in this aspect a typical Swiss. Cautious, humble, acting
with prudence. He won't see Chelsea as his toy & open his wallet. It's
certainly not in the identity of Wyss to "buy" the Champions League. Keep
in mind though that it's not him alone bidding for Chelsea.

Abramovich's desired price of ￡4bn is a utopia. The offer of the
Swiss-American consortium will be much lower. They are preparing an offer
over the weekend and believe Abramovich, who is threatened with sanctions
in the UK, is aware that time is running against him.
