Conor McGregor says he's exploring TWO other football clubs amid claims he's interested in acquiring Chelsea.
The UFC superstar put his name in the hat to buy Chelsea following Roman Abramovich's shock decision to put the club up for sale due to his links with Russian president Vladimir Putin.
He doubled down on his claims he's interested in buying the European champions by promising to 'push it to the limit' in a hilarious video on social media.
