The British authorities are going to sue the former owner of Chelsea football club businessman Roman Abramovich. The reason for the lawsuit was a dispute about the fate of the money received from the sale of the team, the Guardian newspaper writes, citing sources in the government.

We are talking about the dispute between the oligarch and London about the distribution of the received for the sale of Chelsea 2 billion pounds. The British government wants the money to go to Ukraine. Now this money is frozen in an account in one of the banks of the United Kingdom, the material says. “The government believes that we are going to court on this issue. Abramovich has fundamental disagreements with himself about where this money can be spent, and it seems that the law will be the only way to solve this issue. A source from the British foreign Ministry, in turn, added that the authorities continue to negotiate on this issue with representatives of the oligarch, experts and international partners. Roman Abramovich was the owner of Chelsea from 2003 to 2022. After the start of a special military operation in Ukraine, Britain imposed sanctions against the businessman and froze his assets. In May 2022, the oligarch was able to sell the club for £2.5 billion. It is noteworthy that the transaction took place thanks to a special license obtained by Abramovich. The condition for its issuance was that the businessman will not receive the proceeds and send them to help all those affected by the conflict, that is, including the Russians. However, the British authorities want to give the money only for the needs of Ukraine.
