Former Chelsea and France midfielder Florent Malouda shared his thoughts on former Blues owner Roman Abramovich.
Would you say Abramovich is the best club owner of my career? Yes, I would say there are two. I’m Roman and Jean-Michel Ola from Lyon. They are always worried about their club. When you look at everything that has been done, not only investments, but also trophies, you are surprised.
Abramovich made Chelsea sexy and attractive. These are real examples of club owners. I was lucky to play in their club”, – quotes the French “Sport Express”.
Malouda played for Chelsea from 2007 to 2013, making a total of 229 appearances and scoring 45 goals for the Londoners.
Recall that in March last year it was announced that the UK put Roman Abramovich on the sanctions list, the assets of the businessman in the country were frozen.
Then the leadership of the English Premier League (EPL) removed the businessman from the post of president of the football club, in May he sold Chelsea to American Todd Bowley.
Abramovich bought Chelsea for £140m in 2003. Since then, the London club has won the Premier League five times, the Champions League and Europa League twice, the FA Cup five times and the English League Cup three times.
