Nick Candy, who is in the running to buy Chelsea, is said to be keen for fans to acquire a share of the West London outfit if his bid is successful.

Nick Candy will allegedly look to hand fans an opportunity to acquire a share in Chelsea if he is successful with his ownership bid.

With the deadline for proposals having passed on Friday, suitable offers are now being assessed with the view of the race being whittled down to a handful of candidates.

Candy, a boyhood Chelsea fan, has teamed with South Korean investors Hana Financial Group and C&P Sports Group to put forward what they believe to be an attractive offer.

In a report in the Daily Mail, it is revealed that Candy wants fans to acquire a share of the voting and economic rights in a bid to help protect the future of the club.

The report adds that Candy has also held talks with PrimaryBid, a technology platform, to introduce a community enfranchisement model.

While the 'Blue Football Consortium's' bid of £2bn is said to be lower than other candidates, it has been widely reported that the most suitable offers will be accepted, rather than the most lucrative.
