Marina Granovskaia linked to secret payments by former Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich
Powerful chief executive of Chelsea under Abramovich appears in documents showing offshore payments by oligarch
The former chief executive of Chelsea, once described as “the most powerful woman in football”, is facing questions about what she knew of secret payments made under the club’s former owner Roman Abramovich, amid an ongoing investigation into alleged breaches of football spending rules.
Details of millions of pounds in fees, funded by offshore vehicles belonging to the Russian oligarch, emerged last year as a result of the Cyprus Confidential leaks project, published by the Guardian and international partners.
