Abramovich, who bought Chelsea in 2003, sold the club to Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital in 2022 after the Russian oligarch was sanctioned following the invasion of Ukraine by Russia because of his ties with President Vladimir Putin.
The 58 -year -old man has not expressed himself publicly since the sale, but BBC Sport reports that a new interview in two parts will be published in the book to be published ”
Sanctioned: behind the scenes of the sale of the Chelsea FC ”.
A new book balances everything behind the scenes of the sale of Chelsea
Abramovich granted the first part of the interview to Istanbul last year, followed by another in Abu Dhabi in January.
Chelsea won five Premier League titles and two Champions Leagues under the direction of Abramovich, but the club experienced difficulties in the years that followed the buyout by the American consortium. The former owner received nothing from the 2.5 billion sterling books that Boehly and his partners agreed to pay for the club. The funds remained on a frozen bank account despite the assertion that they are used for humanitarian causes linked to Ukraine.

The details of the sale of Chelsea in 2022 will be revealed during the publication of the book this summer, while the Blues of Enzo Maresca will try to strengthen their hopes of finding the Champions League next season by receiving Everton in the Premier League this weekend.
