How will Chelsea reorganize itself to remain in elite football without Roman Abramovich in charge?

The Chelsea is, without a doubt, the club currently most affected by the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. The ‘Blues’ are at the center of attention and controversy, even more so with the ‘resignation’ of the Russian tycoon, Roman Abramovichof team management. In the midst of the tension and uncertainty that this means, the bad news for the London team continued this Sunday after losing the trophy of the england league cupat the hands of Liverpool, in a dramatic final that was defined in the penalty shootout (10-11). This -painful- fall makes us bring up the reorganization that the current European champion now intends to carry out to remain in the elite of world football.

At Wembley, London’s football temple, Chelsea He wanted to appease his complicated present, at managerial level, with a special title in the EFL Cup, but things did not turn out as expected and he was left empty-handed.

After a great game that lasted 120 minutes and with no goals on the scoreboard, those led by Thomas Tuchel staged a passionate definition on penalties with Liverpool, in which all the players kicked, including the goalkeepers.

One day before, Chelsea suffered a very important internal loss that could have irremediable consequences in the future.

“During my almost 20 years as owner of Chelsea, I have always viewed my role as that of a custodian of the club, whose job is to ensure that we are as successful as possible today and in the future, while at the same time playing a positive role in our communities”Abramóvich pointed out in an official statement.

“I have always made decisions with the best interest of the club in mind. I remain committed to these values. That is why today I give the Chelsea Charitable Trust the stewardship and care of Chelsea FC. I trust that at this time they are in the best position to look after the interests of the club, the players, the employees and the fans.”added

Roman Abramovich he has been constantly linked with the Russian government and is said to have a fairly cordial relationship with President Vladimir Putin. In addition, for several years the British Justice has been investigating him for alleged criminal activities.

To this is added that, a few days ago, immigration officials would have received instructions not to let the Russian billionaire enter the United Kingdom.

How would Chelsea reorganize?

Thanks to the fortune he built over several years, mainly in the oil industry, Abramovich became owner of Chelsea in 2003, paying off a staggering debt from the club and spending a total of 165 million euros to buy it.

But that is not all. During this time,

Chelsea’s current success is indisputable. He continues to position himself not only among the best in his country, but throughout the world. The billions disbursed in recent years both in important reinforcements, both players and coaches, has allowed the ‘Blues’ to be placed at the top of football. But without Abramóvich, a panorama of uncertainty is presented for the future.

According to the renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano, despite the statement issued, Román Abramovic will continue to be the owner of Chelsea.

Abramovich made this move to “protect” Chelsea as a club, including the board and the players.assured Romano on his official Twitter account.

In that sense, the strong capital of the London club, for now, will remain. This will allow him to continue making high-end signings, such as the 113 million invested in Romelu Lukaku or the 80 million destined for the transfer of Kai Havertz, both players from the current squad.

That yes, in case Abramóvich definitely demarcates the club, the ‘Blues’ could suffer quite negative economic effects, although with the current success they could cope with this situation with greater tranquility than a few years ago. Be that as it may, the idea is to continue adding titles to the list of winners. This season’s League Cup could not be, but the Premier League and the Champions League are still on the horizon.
