EXTRAORDINARY claims that Chelsea are about to be sold to Britain’s richest man resurfaced on Twitter on Saturday night.
The Secret Footballer Twitter account claimed that Jim Ratcliffe is closing in on purchasing the Blues for £2billion.
The well-respected TSF account has over 100,000 Twitter followers and is also an award-winning author.
However, sources close to Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich told SunSport that the club is not for sale.
Blues chief Abramovich is in Nice to watch the pre-season friendly against Inter Milan on Saturday night.
Rumoured buyer Ratcliffe made his billions through chemical engineering.
The 65-year-old has an estimated worth of £21bn and was named the richest person in the UK according to the Sunday Times Rich List.
Claims of his interest in Chelsea were first surfaced in June.
Ratcliffe is a Manchester United fan but currently holds a season ticket at Stamford Bridge.
He also knows all about running football clubs after purchasing FC Lausanne-Sport in November – who were relegated from the Swiss Premier League last season.
