> How many days since one of their clubs was front page international news? Chelsea football club was near the front in New Zealand this week

London-based club Chelsea has been front page news in the UK this week because its Russian owner (Roman Abramovich) has been targeted by sanctions imposed as a result of the invasion of Ukraine, throwing the future of the club (and its massively expensive players) into doubt. Some casual googling shows that this story has been covered by Fox News, Deutsche Welle in Germany, Italy 24 News and others



Yes, that’s what I mean. Their affairs are international news.
