Chelsea's Roman Abramovich sale increases chances of three stars ... (Daily Express)

CHELSEA face losing three out-of-contract stars for nothing as owner Roman Abramovich looks to make a swift exit by selling up.

Chelsea face the possibility of losing all three defensive players whom are out of contract this summer as Roman Abramovich looks to sell the club. “For me being part of winning team is all that I want to be as a football player.” As for Christensen, it is understood the Dane is most likely to depart Stamford Bridge after eight years with the club. The Blaugrana are prepared to offer Azpilicueta a two-year deal, while Chelsea's club policy restricts them to offering only a one-year extension as he is over 30. Abramovich announced on Wednesday that he had made the difficult decision to put the club up for sale to bring an end to nearly 19 years as owner. But according to The Telegraph, there are fears within the club that for the three players locked in talks over a new contract, the conclusion of Abramovich’s reign could bring about tighter budget restrictions.
