Chelsea owner, Abramovich visits UK for first time in three years

Chelsea owner, Roman Abramovich, has visited London for the first time in three years to see his family.

A spokesman for the Russian billionaire confirmed this to the PA News Agency.

Abramovich entered the UK as an Israeli citizen, therefore not needing a visa to travel.

It is understood that Abramovich could visit Chelsea while in London.

The 54-year-old had issues with his entrepreneurial visa in 2018, after which he has not been spotted in London.

Abramovich did attend the Blues’ Europa League final victory in Baku in 2019, and the Champions League final win over Manchester City in Porto in May.

The Chelsea boss’ visit to London represents a further underlining of his commitment to the club.
