    He turned control of the team over to a board of trustees, he's not selling anything or going anywhere.

    If Britain/NATO were serious, his ownership would just be voided and money given to finance war against Russia.

    As others have said, the club is temporarily under the control of a supporter's trust group. The club hasn't been sold and is not up for sale. It's a way for the owner to step aside so as the club isn't targeted just because of the ownership. The owner declined to comment about Ukraine.

    Looks like he sold and is giving the proceeds to Ukraine relief.

    This is absurd - its cancel culture. Russian businessmen and Russian athletes aren't responsible for the Russian government.

    Government needs to steal more personal property to finance their endeavors?

    Chelsea is going back to being irrelevant. Before he bought the team they haven't won a single trophy.

    I assume he knew it would be a mess trying to even get his investment back let alone the sale profits if he tried.

    Saying any "net" profit goes to Ukraine probably will keep the haters away from Chelsea and might let him out in a better position than otherwise.

    Just my guess.

    Opti, I'm sure you're right. If Roman was in a tough spot, might as well make it look good.

    Didn't he become Israeli citizen? I guess that doesn't matter.
