New claims Roman Abramovich and UK government have ‘struck deal’ over Chelsea takeover

Daily Mirror says Reports Roman Abramovich has struck a deal with the UK government which will push through Todd Boehly’s takeover of the club and finally bring an end to his ownership of Chelsea, are not true.

The Russian billionaire and his legal team reportedly found a resolution to the issues that had prevented the takeover from being finalised, striking an agreement over how his £1.5bn debt will be handled. However, Mirror Football understands a deal is not yet fully agreed with the Government.

Abramovich has previously stated he does not wish to have the loan repaid to him, but Government officials were apparently worried that the 55-year-old would perform a U-turn at a later date and call for the money to be repaid.
