British journalist Piers Morgan has told Chelsea fans they should be criticising —and not praising — club owner Roman Abramovich.
He wrote on Twitter: "Abramovich sells Chelsea — but still doesn't say a single word of condemnation for what his mate Putin's done.
"Memo to Chelsea fans desperately justifying their defence of Abramovich by saying 'he's not Putin's mate and doesn't get involved in politics'.
"He literally helped pick Putin's first cabinet. That's why he won't criticise him or the war and why he deserves your opprobrium not praise."
Abramovich, who is believed to have close ties to Vladimir Putin, has announced his decision to sell Chelsea in the aftermath of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
