Together with the aforementioned duo, the co-founders of Centricus Nizar Al-Bassam and CEO Garth Ritchie are all regular at Chelsea home games. <\/p>\n<p>    The quartet sent their offer to the American commercial bank Raine Group, which is currently overseeing the sale, as Roman Abramovich is banned from any involvement and no profit from the sale can go to the Russian oligarch.  They stressed that club director Marina Granovskaia would be part of her plans unless it is deemed inappropriate because of her own connections to Abramovich. <\/p>\n<section data-embed-group=\"read-more\" data-embed-items=\"2\" data-ad-dockable=\"true\" data-redesign-embed=\"true\">\n<aside  data->\n<figure>\n<amp-img ><\/p>\n<p><\/amp-img><br \/>\n<\/figure>\n<div >\n<p>Thomas Tuchel explains how the lack of fans affects Chelsea&#8217;s hunt for a cup double<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<aside  data->\n<figure>\n<amp-img ><\/p>\n<p><\/amp-img><br \/>\n<\/figure>\n<div >\n<p>Nick Candy makes Thomas Tuchel&#8217;s attitude clear as Man Utd plot move for Chelsea boss<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<\/section>\n<p>A statement confirming that the offer had been submitted read: &#8220;Centricus &#8211; the London-based global investment firm, has confirmed its official bid for the acquisition of Fordstam Limited (CFC Group), the parent company of Chelsea FC.
