      Sol Campbell and Fiona Barratt at the Sporting Equals awards in October last yearCredit: Getty
      He first reduced the price of the six-storey house in September 2022 after reportedly being cheated out of £1.5m in rent.
      Sol was forced to go to court to obtain an eviction notice after a tenant failed to pay rent.
      He is thought to have owned the property since 2004, with then interior designer wife Fiona Barrett later extensively redesigning the home.
      But with the mansion still up for sale three years after it was place on the market, Sol has now reduced the asking price to £15m.

      The stunning property contains six bedrooms in the main house along with a separate two-bed mews house accessed via an underground passageway.
      It also boasts an incredible drawing room, cinema, library, kitchen, and lift to go along with its views across the River Thames and Albert Bridge.
      On the market with Knight Frank, the property description adds: “A Grade II listed townhouse, overlooking the river, that has been extensively refurbished and excellently interior designed to create an elegant and substantial London home.
      “With secure gated access from the front, a walled garden and further protection provided by the mews house at the rear, this is a private and secure house that offers discretion and a sense of tranquillity throughout.”

      The townhouse is located in the exclusive street of Cheyne Walk, previously home to the likes of George Best, Keith Richard and Mick Jagger, The Mirror reports.
      But the footballer, who also played for Tottenham Hotspur and captained Portsmouth to FA Cup glory in 2008, has a mixed history with his former home.
      Sol was left seething following a rent dispute with a tenant two years ago.
      He claimed to have received a deposit and three months’ rent from a businessman who had just sold his insurance company for £1bn, but received no further payments.
      Since his retirement as a player, Sol has embarked on managerial spells at Macclesfield and Southend.
      But he also boasts a stunning property empire worth a whopping £50m, and his own furniture business with wife Fiona.
      Along with the Chelsea townhouse, he is said to own the nine-bedroom Grade II-listed Hallington Hall in Northumberland, as well as a luxury penthouse flat in West London.
      Representatives of the ex-footballer have been approached for comment.

      It comes after a spate of break-ins at footballers’ homes, including Sterling’s current £6million property in Surrey which was burgled while he was away on World Cup duty.
      Concerned Sterling, whose Chelsea side take on Liverpool in a mouth-watering Carabao Cup final on Sunday, now wants to beef up security at his new house to make sure his family is safe.
      A source close to the star told The Sun: “Raheem’s family is everything to him and he can’t ever have a situation where their safety is compromised, it’s his absolute priority to prevent that from ever happening.
      “Taking control of the design of the space allows him to integrate the security elements, he’s able to build a safe haven to raise his family.

      “The nature of his job means he’s away a lot so he has to be sure his family is safe at home.”
      Sterling was forced to jet back from the World Cup in Qatar in December, 2022 after a home raid.
      The break-in happened shortly before his terrified fiancée Paige Milian, 27, arrived back at the house with their two children to find their home had been ransacked.
      Paige raised the alarm but the burglars made off with jewellery and watches.

      Chelsea are still languishing in 10th place in the Premier League table, 14 points adrift of the top four.
      Land Registry records show that he paid £4.8million for his Surrey home which had a guide price of £5.5million.
      But a housing developer has now applied for planning permission to build three homes on a nearby plot of land, which Chukwuemeka has objected to.
      In a letter to planners, he wrote: “Me and my family are new in the estate and this is maybe planning application number four we have received since being in the estate.

      “The estate will continue to increase in properties but the infrastructure remains the same.
      “I don’t think this is a good idea building more houses on a plot of land that originally had just one house on it. Not in support because of the number of new properties to be built there.”
