The billionaire, who did not attend yesterday’s FA Cup final which his team won 1-0, is said to have returned to his homeland and can’t now enter Britain.

Sources close to the oligarch said his request for a new visa had not been denied, but UK authorities were taking longer tan usual to renew it without offering any explanation.

Mr Abramovich has a net worth of £9.3billion, and is the 13th richest man in the UK, according to the Sunday Times Rich List.

Two people close to him have told the Financial Times that his investor visa has run out.

The Home Office have not yet responded to requests for comment.

Mr Abramovich made his fortune in oil and aluminium following the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991.

He has since embraced a glamorous lifestyle, with vast private yachts, art deals and his ownership of Chelsea, which he bought in 2003.
