The third member of the Todd Boehly and Hansjorg Wyss-led consortium, interested in buying Chelsea, has been named as property developer Jonathan Goldstein.
Roman Abramovich officially announced that he was putting the club up for sale nearly two weeks ago but was sanctioned by the UK government on Thursday.
The Russian billionaire had his assets frozen for what the government called a "decades" long relationship with Vladimir Putin, something Abramovich has always denied.
With no money allowed to pass through the club under the sanctions, it sparked questions of whether they would completely derail the sale of the Blues.
But while they remain unable to sell matchday tickets or negotiate transfers and contracts, a sale would be allowed to go through if Chelsea can agree a new licence, although no money would go to Abramovich.
Swiss and American billionaires Wyss and Boehly were two of the first names to be linked with a takeover after the news of Abramovich's decision first emerged.
The pair formed a consortium and submitted a bid alongside one other member who has previously been unnamed.
But it has now been reported by Matt Law of The Telegraph that Goldstein, a property developer in London and long-term business partner of Boehly's, is part of the consortium.
He is the founder and CEO of Cain International and is a known football fan.
Sky News have also reported that Sir Martin Broughton is in talks to spearhead a rescue bid for Chelsea - either alongside Boehly and Wyss or on his own - and is a lifelong fan of the club.
