New York Jets owner Robert "Woody" Johnson is putting together a bid to buy Chelsea.
The American has already spoken with the Raine Group, who are responsible for organising bidding for the Roman Abramovich-owned team.
The Russian billionaire is divesting his assets after Russia's invasion of Ukraine, which is leading to a bidding war for the Premier League club.
According to ESPN, Johnson has a lot of knowledge of Chelsea and the Premier League, as he spent a lot of time in London as the United States ambassador.
He would not be the first NFL owner to buy a Premier League club, with the Glazers (Manchester United), Fenway Sports Group (Liverpool) and Stan Kroenke (Arsenal) prime examples.
