Chelsea have parted ways with commercial director Damian Willoughby after discovering "inappropriate messages" which do not align with the club's values.
It is understood the messages were sent to Catalina Kim, a football agent who is the founder and chief executive of C&P Sports Group. C&P was involved in a bid by British property tycoon Nick Candy to buy Chelsea from Roman Abramovich before American Todd Boehly's consortium completed a takeover in May.
Nick Candy, the property tycoon who was recently involved in the the Partygate scandal and a bid to buy Chelsea FC, has abandoned his plans to buy Manchester-headquartered THG.
A falta de cuatro días para la visita del Real Madrid en Champions, más de un centenar de aficionados del Chelsea se reunió para protestar en contra de unos posibles compradores del club: los Ricketts. La familia norteamericana es propietaria de los Chicago Cubs y ha sido acusada de racismo en numerosas ocasiones. Algo que no convence a los seguidores blues, que se concentraron en las inmediaciones de Stamford Bridge en la previa del encuentro ante el Brentford.
Woody Johnson has admitted it’s “disappointing” he’s out of the running to buy Chelsea, but also hinted at his relief at avoiding the “huge challenge” the new owners will face at Stamford Bridge.
The remaining four bidders for Chelsea FC have been told they must commit to a minimum of £1 billion ($1.31bn) future investment in the club if they are to succeed in taking it over from the Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich.
The remaining bidders interested in buying Chelsea, including three confirmed by Sky Sports, have been told they must commit £1bn to support the club infrastructure.
