Roman Abramovich's 'next logical decision would be take over at CSKA Moscow' according to Russian football agent, once the billionaire under UK sanctions has departed as Chelsea owner

A Russian football agent believes Roman Abramovich could turn to CSKA Moscow once his Chelsea exit is complete.

UK sanctions handed to the current Blues owner following Russia's invasion of Ukraine mean he is in a position where he will almost have to release control of the club he has bankrolled to the top of the game with billions of pounds since taking control in 2003.

But despite having to expectedly and reluctantly release control of the Blues to help keep the club afloat, Timur Gurtskaya believes there is a route back into the game for the 55-year-old in his homeland at CSKA Moscow.
