BREAKING NEWS: Chelsea takeover takes a huge turn.

CHELSEA have been plunged into an 11th-hour sale crisis - because of Roman Abramovich’s PORTUGUESE passport.

SunSport understands the Government is finally prepared to sign off the proposed £4.25bn deal to the consortium led by Los Angeles Dodgers co-owner Todd Boehly.

But Whitehall chiefs are pointing to objections from the European Union that could SCUPPER the entire deal.

And, while it is still expected that an agreement can be reached, there is a genuine risk of Chelsea not being given the EU go ahead.

SunSport has been told that the Government believes Abramovich has now given sufficient undertakings for the Treasury and DCMS to sign off the takeover.

The Russian billionaire has provided legally binding guarantees over the £1.6bn loan which helped fund the club over the past 19 years and promises that none of it will go to him or his family.
