Todd Boehly Opened up on the Chelsea ownership amidst controversy.
Just two years after buying the London club, Chelsea co-owner Todd Boehly has finally spoken out about the differences encountered about the Chelsea ownership with ClearLake.
The American consortium is reportedly exploring its options after just two years in administration. A consortium led by Clearlake Capital and Todd Boehly took over from Roman Abramovich in 2022.
Boehly who already has sports experience through his involvement with MLB team Los Angeles Dodgers, is part of Guggenheim Partners and is also backed by Swiss businessman Hanscherg Wyss. Clearlake is an American private equity firm founded by Behdad Eghbali and Jose E. Feliciano.
According to TELEGRAPH, it is true that there have been a great deal of unrestrained problems among Chelsea’s owners recently.
Todd Boehly believes that the working relationship with Chelsea’s co-owner Clearlake Capital has reached breaking point and a solution needs to be found to avoid civil war at Stamford Bridge.
Meanwhile, Boehly believes he can quickly raise more than £2.5 billion to buy Clearlake, which would also allow Chelsea’s largest shareholder to make a profit on his initial investment.
Investors are reportedly ready to back Boehly, who reportedly has a 20-30-year vision for Chelsea, including building a new stadium.
