Chelsea's supporters trust (CST) has admitted it 'still has concerns' over the Ricketts family's bid to buy the club amid growing tensions over their desire to take over the club from Roman Abramovich.
The US-based family, who own the Chicago Cubs MLB baseball team, flew into London to smooth over concerns about their potential ownership after comments resurfaced from Joe Ricketts in 2012 saying Muslims were 'naturally my enemy'.
Ricketts Snr has since apologised for his words before stepping away from the Cubs, while son Tom released a statement earlier this week promising supporters that they 'reject any form of hate', promising to 'promote diversity and inclusion' if they are picked to take the club forward.
