Nice chief Fournier responds to Ratcliffe Chelsea takeover rumours

Nice chief Julien Fournier doesn't expect to be partnering with Chelsea anytime soon.

OGCN owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe has been linked with a bid for the London giants this week as Roman Abramovich seeks to sell.

But Fournier says the prospect of Ratcliffe's company INEOS buying Chelsea is unlikely.

He said: "I am not the representative of INEOS but I share a lot of things about football with them but I do not think it is on the agenda."
