The Ricketts family will fly to London in hope of smoothing over growing tensions over their bid to buy Chelsea, despite receiving no confirmation that they had even made it on the shortlist of preferred offers.
Bidders were still awaiting news of which offers had made the cut on Tuesday night, nevertheless representatives of the Ricketts family - whose bid will be part-funded by hedge fund manager Ken Griffin - will fly to England amid objections from Blues supporters about their proposed takeover.
Once in the capital they are expected to meet Chelsea Pitch Owners and the club’s supporters trust.
