Chelsea legend John Terry is part of a consortium seeking to buy a ten per cent stake in the club.

Goal says Terry is at the forefront of a consortium that is looking to purchase a 10 per cent stake in Chelsea for £250million.

The Chelsea legend - along with former women's star Claire Rafferty - are heading up the consortium called True Blue.

The report claims the bid will also allow supporters, players and ex-staff to buy fan tokens for more than £100, with voting rights coming in return.

It comes with the Blues set to close their bidding window for control of the club at 9pm on Friday evening, after which offers will be whittled down to a shortlist of four potential new owners. Roman Abramovich is looking to sell the club after being hit with sanctions due to his close ties with Vladimir Putin amid the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Goal claim another figure behind the consortium is Conservative party donor David Meller, a Chelsea fan who is invested in the idea along with his son Jonathan.
