British billionaire Jim Ratcliffe has seen his 4.25 billion-pound ($5.3 billion) bid for Chelsea Football Club dismissed by Raine Group, the U.S. bank running the sale.

“We will continue to engage with the fanbase,” said Crotty. “We see ourselves as a fan-based bid.”

Ratcliffe announced his offer at the end of a months-long process during which Raine had been studying separate proposals from Boehly, British businessman Martin Broughton and Bain Capital co-chairman Stephen Pagliuca. A representative for Raine declined to comment. Crotty said Ineos had already studied a takeover of Chelsea in recent years, only to be put off by the potential price.
