Todd Boehly’s consortium has signed an agreement to purchase Chelsea from Roman Abramovich.
The proposed deal, announced by the club in a statement in the early hours of Saturday morning, has to be approved by the UK Government and the Premier League before it can be completed. Chelsea say a deal is «expected to complete in late May».
The group headed by the LA Dodgers part-owner – which includes backing from Clearlake Capital, a US investment firm – beat off late competition from £4.25billion bidder Sir Jim Ratcliffe and other consortiums led by Stephen Pagliuca and Sir Martin Broughton to win the battle to become the Premier League club’s new owners.

Charitable causes, pretty sure that just means tax free
Sam Otoo yes when it is listed on NYSE it's going to increase the business Capital as a company is a separate legal entity. I think it will be good if the business is listed cuz most of the real funs will buy some share to enjoy being part of the team and also enjoy dividend when the company makes profits. And when the company (Chelsea) is making lost the funs will suffer also
Man U are indebt not because it is listed but it's because they made bad investment look at Maguire That player is a bad debt and he should be written off .
I wish the kronkies were Russians too arsenal FC could be far .y isn't arsenal FC sold too cz it's only for profits not trophies
We’ll miss you Mr. Abramovich…
thank you Roman
Honestly don't know how it took this long for Moneyball to catch on, it should have been adopted and standardised by big clubs years ago, it not only could save a club so much money but also lead to more successful transfers and better return on players.
In short, it means keep dreaming.. we’re here for the profits NOT to buy players ?
hurts that abramovich made $4 billion profit in this sale
Watu wabaya saana nyie wazungu wadhulumati wakubwa hii laana itawagharimi mumemdhulumu huyo mrusi
so eng goverment,puts roman to a potision to sell something(chelsea in this case),and then they tell him you will not take your money from that sale …basically rob him?
I feel this marks the end of a period of success for Chelsea. They will now be forced to go through pretty much what Arsenal and United are going through, where Chelsea will not be the sole focus of the owners and bureaucracy will play a part in decision making. Anyone who can’t see this are naive.
Boehly has a very Charles Green/Mike Ashley look about him ?
blood money abramovich !!!
blood money abramovich !!!
Here comes the Americans, to destroy football
That “Anti-Glazer” clause Abramovich put in might have saved this club, a parting gift from the best owner we have ever had
If not better, at least I hope they'd keep Chelsea on top as these years in Roman's hands! ???
British hypocrites will have its day even its 1000s years from now
Abramovich stand needed
Is that Tobey from the Office?
About 5.23 billion dollar. What a business ???
I find very bizarre that you have to say good bye to your 2.5 billion pounds and someone is going to decide what you are going to do with your money…. where is democracy in that ?
The UK exposing themselves for the thieves they are. Blatantly stealing from Roman
Chelsea will always be a roman empire.
Does Todd live the game? Or could he be in it for the profit only? The hard lessons of the perennial struggles of ManU and Arsenal must not be ignored
Where’s Kaveh ?
Where is the owner and director test for Newcastle owners ?
The Americans took it off the Russians
NATO FC
Only respect For Roman If he really donates the sale money.
Sky news in the mud. They reported fake news about Roman wants loan back. Now that Sky news reporter has been hiding for 3 days lol.
Fake news
Chelsea will relegate next season
What part of sanctions do you people not understand ? he can't profit from the club so that means he can't sell anything ??♂️stop with the fake news
One thing is for sure it's an American consortium so it's nailed on they are in for maximum profit
Dont put chelsea in the same bracket as united and city, we sell players for good money and buy with that, city and united dont at all.
Chelsea in recent times have played by ffp rules and are a great buisines model big on charity also.
Roman threw money at cfc early on to build it into a club worth 4,25b.
I know people want to hate but gotta look at actual facts not just agendas and bias.
Liverpool havent won many trophies in that time ….
You can't compete with the Americans. All they need is toilet paper and print figures on it, while you have to put together real money.
I'm just glad we have a new owner now and we can start focusing on next season there's been so much drama at the club this season hopefully we come back stronger than ever ?
