Nick Candy believes his readiness to commit to the redevelopment of Stamford Bridge will appeal to Roman Abramovich

British businessman Nick Candy is "actively exploring a number of options for a potential bid" to buy Chelsea.

Candy, a boyhood Chelsea fan, is trying to form a consortium with a number of international investors.

Roman Abramovich put the club up for sale last week amid the ongoing crisis in Ukraine following Russia's invasion.

Candy, 49, believes his background as a property developer could give him an advantage with any plans to rebuild Stamford Bridge.
