London: Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel is hoping a quick sale of the European champions will provide clarity for employees and fans of the club. Final bids for the club must be submitted on Friday.
Chelsea were put up for sale after current owner Roman Abramovich was hit by sanctions by the British government for his alleged links to Russian president Vladimir Putin as the latter wages war on Ukraine.
Chelsea have been granted a special licence to continue operating but with revenue from their income streams frozen, they will quickly run out of cash to meet their expenses, including a £28 million ($36.7 million) monthly wage bill, unless control is passed to a new owner.
