The sale of Chelsea Football Club is expected to be announced, ending a two-month process initiated after Roman Abramovich was sanctioned by the UK government. The new owner is likely to be American Todd Bowley, who has experience in sports team ownership. The deal is urgent due to a special operating license expiring soon. American influence in the Premier League is significant, with several clubs already under American ownership. The deal could be worth up to £4 billion, and Abramovich has waived a £1.5 billion loan. The new owners are expected to invest in the club's academy, women's team, and stadium redevelopment.
