Former Chelsea defender Tal Ben Haim is brokering a deal for a Gulf-based billionaire to buy the club, according to reports.

With the deadline to submit a bid to buy the club looming, following the government's decision to sanction owner Roman Abramovich due to his links with Russian president Vladimir Putin, the Blues have reportedly yet another offer on the table involving Ben Haim. TalkSPORT claim that he is helping a billionaire who has submitted a £2billion offer and promised a further £500million in funds in an effort to pip the likes of Nick Candy, Sebastian Coe and a three-man consortium to win the race.

Bidders have until 9pm on Friday to submit an offer, with the government effectively in control of Chelsea, who are operating under a special license in order to continue with certain aspects of their business. Abramovich put the Blues up for sale more than a fortnight ago prior to the UK government sanctions amid the war in Ukraine, having bought the club in 2003 for £140m before super-charging them to the top of European football.
