Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich has seen net worth plummet by £2.4bn so far in 2020 as coronavirus hits financial market


ROMAN ABRAMOVICH’S net worth has fallen by a whopping £2.4billion already this year.

The global outbreak of coronavirus has left the Chelsea owner out of pocket – but luckily he still sits on a fortune of around £10.95billion.

According to the Moscow Times, Russia’s top billionaires have lost a combined total of £50.6billion in 2020.

President Vladimir Putin is said to have lost £2.8billion, while Abramovich has parted ways with just over £2.4billion.

The 53-year-old, who has owned Chelsea since 2003, has suffered the effects that coronavirus has had on the financial market.

But the Russian-Israeli businessman has plenty to fall back on.

He might decide to take a trip out to sea on his £1bn super-yacht to take his mind off of his plummeting net worth.

The Eclipse has two pools, a submarine and even a missile defence system.

Or if he’d prefer to stay on dry land, Abramovich could nestle away in one of his many homes around the globe.

His property portfolio adds up to more than £340million and includes mansions in London, a Carribean party pad, a French chateau and even a James Bond villain-style ski lodge.

But he will not be heading to his homes in the English capital as he has not set foot in Britain since the Government failed to renew his Visa in May 2018.

Despite not attending Stamford Bridge anymore, Abramovich keeps a close eye on Frank Lampard and Co.

SunSport revealed this week that the billionaire could have bought Arsenal before he splashed the cash on Chelsea – but was told they were not for sale.
