‘World’s most profitable football business’: Abramovich’s frozen Chelsea cash earns £175m
Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich’s frozen Chelsea Football Club accounts have generated about £175 million in profit, according to a court‑ordered valuation. The money sits in a UK bank while ongoing legal battles continue over its allocation, including a dispute between the club’s administrators and Abramovich’s representatives. Separate criminal investigations also examine the source of the funds.
