If that's true :wow:

One reason why Abramovich is good in Russia and hasn't had his ill-gotten assets returned to the state is he stays in his lane. He sticks to Putin's pact with Oligarchs: stay out of politics and pay your taxes :ufdup:

Main points of the article - via @Pierre_B_y

  • Putin asked Abrahamovitch to withdraw from ESL. Because of Gazprom links with UCL, because 2022 final is in Saint Petersburg, and because Zenit needs to be in the best competition.
  • JP Morgan was a middle man, the money actually came from Saudi Arabia
  • UAE asked ManCity to withdraw because they try to build a progressist image of their country and don't want to be associated with Saudi Arabia
  • 50 millions has already been spent in marketing and legal fees by the 12 breakaway clubs
  • Florentino Perez construction company signed a 6.5 billion euros deal in Saudi Arabia, to built the new Saudi "Las Vegas"

I never understood why Gazprom sponsors football so heavily. Like who watches football thinking "I really need to change my industrial gas provider" :dead: If they had some subsidiary which did gas for individual, home customers, I could see it, but Gazprom only does bulk gas supply straight to foreign governments
