The seven-time champion Lewis Hamilton has been a die-hard fan of Arsenal from his childhood. If Broughton ends up being the owner of Chelsea, then Lewis Hamilton will be making an effort to promote equality and diversity at the club.
Chelsea went up for sale after the UK government imposed sanctions on Roman Abramovic following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Following that, the Raine Group is overseeing the sale of the North London club. Broughton who has been a Chelsea fan is one of the few people who have bided their interest in buying the club.

Broughton faces a stern rivalry from Steve Pagliuca in buying Chelsea. Steve Pagliuca is the current owner of the NBA team, the Boston Celtics. Pagliuca also owns a stake in the Serie A club Atalanta. American investor Stephen Pagliuca says NBA chairman Larry Tanenbaum and former Chelsea captain John Terry have joined his bid to purchase the Premier League club.
Last week Pagliuca said that Tanenbaum, who is owner of the Canadian company Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment (MLSE), had become ‘co-managing partner’ of the bid.
The third bid has been submitted by Todd Boehly who is the owner of LA Dodgers.
