Chelsea Hasn't Been Sold Yet, Roman Abramovich Is Reportedly Looking To Buy A Turkish League Club
JAKARTA - Russian tycoon, Roman Abramovich, still has not managed to sell his club, Chelsea. In the midst of his busy search for buyers, he has secretly looked at the opportunity to buy a new club.
Of course the club did not come from England because Roman Abramovich was sanctioned by the local government. The club he is aiming for is a team from Turkey, Goztepe.
Quoted from Mirror, Roman Abramovich has reportedly been in talks with the owner of Goztepe, Sepil. The meeting is understood to have taken place 48 hours after Abramovich transferred his luxury yacht to Turkey.
"It is known that Abramovich was in contact with Sepil through a Turkish businessman. It was said that professionals from both sides assessed the market, and yesterday the former head of the club went to Ankara and held talks on this matter," Mirror wrote.

Goztepe itself is a top caste club in the Turkish League. The club nicknamed Goz Goz is based in the city of Izmir which is the third-largest city in Turkey. Currently, the club is in danger of being relegated.
On the other hand, Abramovich's efforts to sell Chelsea are still continuing. Several world conglomerates are reportedly interested in buying Chelsea from the 55-year-old man, but until now the sale process has not been realized.
The chaos behind the scenes itself is feared to disrupt the Blues' performance on the field. However, so far Thomas Tuchel's team can continue to show strength by reaping positive results in a number of competitions.
