Lee Andrews Claims Offer to Buy Majority Stake in Chelsea

His unverified plan faces heavy skepticism given past disputes over his wealth and credentials.

Overview

  • Andrews, who recently married Katie Price, told The Sun on Wednesday that he is preparing an offer to acquire about 55% of Chelsea.
  • Chelsea, owned by Todd Boehly’s BlueCo since a £4.25 billion purchase in 2022, has not commented on Andrews’ statement.
  • Former partners have accused Andrews of scamming and reporters have flagged disputed claims about a PhD and other credentials.
  • Company records cited in coverage show his touted venture, Aura Worldwide Holdings, was dissolved in 2024, which has fueled doubts about his finances.
  • The takeover talk lands as Chelsea reported a £262.4 million pre-tax loss for 2024–25, keeping questions about funding and stability at the club in focus.
