Chelsea have reportedly posted massive losses for the past two years since the sale of the club.
The Times says the owners of Chelsea have lost well over £1bn over the past two years after taking over the club from Roman Abramovich.

It's been revealed the club's parent company, 22 Holdco Ltd, suffered losses of £445.5m last season following a £653m shortfall the year prior.
However in contrast, Chelsea posted a profit for season 2023/24 of £129.6m. The difference is explained by the Premier League's Profit and Sustainability Rules, which cannot be logged as income in the parent company's books.
Among the claims is the world record £200m sale of the women's team to their own company, BlueCo, and also the sales of two hotels. Such sales are recorded by PSR, but not in standard accounting practices.
