Boehly is the owner of the LA Dodgers baseball team and got his first taste of a match at Stamford Bridge when he was in attendance for the Blues’ recent 2-2 draw with Wolves.

The London club earlier this month announced the 4.25 billion pound ($5.2 billion) deal with Boehly’s consortium, backed by Clearlake Capital, for the reigning European champions, subject to receiving the required approvals.

The UK government’s approval of the sale was being finalised on Monday night, the source said, though the deal also faces the need for EU approval, as Abramovich holds a Portuguese passport.
