Source says aliyah process was ‘long in planning’, Abramovich ‘very committed’ to Israel a country he loves and has donated over a billion dollars into medical research. 

Roman Abramovich, the Russian billionaire businessman, owner of the soccer team Chelsea FC and one ofn the richest  men in the world immigrated to Israel on Monday, The Jerusalem Post has learned.

Abramovich landed at Ben-Gurion Airport on Monday morning, met with Interior Ministry officials and received his Israeli ID card.

Abramovich’s decision to immigrate to Israel came amid a wave of reports in the British press that his work visa in Britain had expired, prompting him to move to Israel.

But sources close to Abramovich rejected the reports and told the Post that he had been planning to make aliya for a long time and finally made his dream come true on Monday.

“He is very committed to Israel,” a source close to him told the Post. “He has family ties there and has invested in business and has charitable contributions and this has been in the back of his mind for a while, to formalize his ties with the country.”
