Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich to relinquish stewardship of club

  1. Seems like a purely legal move to protect himself, he’s not selling the club, he’s just taking shelter until the heat is off him

  2. “The Chelsea Foundations trustees are Bruce Buck, John Devine, Emma Hayes, Piara Powar, **Seb Coe**, Hugh Roberston.”

    😮

  3. It will be a temporary move by him, however it should be a permanent move to freeze Russian assets. Most of them were bought with money embezzled by the government and funnelled out of the country through legal but immoral methods. The move should be permanent to show we actually mean business this time.

  4. UK Law twitter asserts the word ‘stewardship’ has no legal meaning, so this seems like PR rather than a change of ownership structure.

    He may have relinquished ‘stewardship’ but he still owns it, and it still owes him a fortune in debts.

  5. He’s a con man. Don’t believe it. Seize the club, auction it and send the money to the NOK of the Russian soldiers. His money is all stolen from the people of Russia.
