Chelsea Football Club can confirm that terms have been agreed for a new ownership group, led by Todd Boehly, Clearlake Capital, Mark Walter and Hansjoerg Wyss, to acquire the Club.


Of the total investment being made, £2.5bn will be applied to purchase the shares in the Club and such proceeds will be deposited into a frozen UK bank account with the intention to donate 100% to charitable causes as confirmed by Roman Abramovich. UK Government approval will be required for the proceeds to be transferred from the frozen UK bank account.

In addition, the proposed new owners will commit £1.75bn in further investment for the benefit of the Club. This includes investments in Stamford Bridge, the Academy, the Women’s Team and Kingsmeadow and continued funding for the Chelsea Foundation.

The sale is expected to complete in late May subject to all necessary regulatory approvals. More details will be provided at that time.

Well, as clubs like real madrid have proven over the years/in times past, ye can have all the galacticos in the world and still not win anything.

We will cease to be extravagant in the transfer market cos the oligarch is gone, but be rest assured that we’d keep shooting for the stars.

Todd and his team aren’t Roman’s upgrade, not even close. We’d need to get used to life under the ownership of a private equity firm.

KTBFFH!

RIP chelsea.. the new owner look like rapist sef

Thanks for the memories Roman, wish you success.

Time to offload useless players like Jorginho, Christensen, Pulisic, Sarr etc.

Good news
