(ANSA) - ROME, APRIL 21 - There are also Lewis Hamilton and Serena Williams in the consortium led by Martin Broughton, a businessman who wants to take over Chelsea from Roman Abramovich.
He writes, both in the newsstand and on the online edition, the 'Mirror', specifying that both the seven-time F1 world champion and the 40-year-old former world No. 1 tennis player are willing to pay £ 10 million each (about 12 million euros) to contribute to the change of ownership of the Blues.
And all this even though Hamilton is, notoriously, an Arsenal fan.
As for Broughton, he is vice president of InternationalAirlines Group, a company that controls British Airways, Iberia and Vueling, but has had a background in football.
In fact, in 2010 he was appointed president of Liverpool with the task of accelerating the sale of the club to the Americans, as it later happened.
Chelsea are currently practically in the hands of the British government following the freezing of the assets of Abramovich, owner of the club.
