Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich may be willing to let Chelsea collapse.

There are two weeks remaining until a government deadline for the sale of Chelsea from Abramovich to another party.

A consortium led by American businessman Todd Boehly are close to agreeing a deal.

However, there are still issues that remain unresolved.

Government sources suggest one of the problems is that Abramovich wants a £1.6bn loan to be repaid by the buyer, which they are unwilling to do.
