‘Tuchel fears! as 3 Chelsea players set to leave club after Roman Abramovich completes Chelsea sale
Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich confirmed on Wednesday that he is looking to sell the Blues after 19 years in charge – following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
However, The Blues boss Thomas Tuchel has admitted he fears the sale of club could have an impact on negotiations with players who are out of contract in the summer.
Meanwhile, Antonio Rudiger, Cesar Azpilicueta and Andreas Christensen are all out of contract at the end of the season.
Tuchel said: “The bottom line is maybe we can’t help it – it is what it is.
“You never know maybe it has a positive effect on the negotiations or maybe it has a negative effect.
“We cannot predict and I would like not to predict on scenarios because you just lose focus, but everyone has a different situation and feels different about it (the sale).
“I hope for the best outcome still, I think we have something to offer still. Chelsea are a strong club and will stay a strong club.
“Our owner decided to sell the club but he sells a strong, solid, organised club at the highest level.”
