Abramovich closer to selling stake in Sibneft

Their stake was previously 57.5 per cent but this has now gone up to 72 per cent, a share which market watchers say could fetch at least $10bn (£5.7bn) and allow the Chelsea Football Club owner to rid himself of Sibneft in a legally straightforward way.
