Chelsea news: Todd Boehly makes promise to ‘demanding’ fans as club prepare to spend again
Chelsea co-owner Todd Boehly has vowed to bring back the glory days to Stamford Bridge and promises the fans that he will get it right. After a disappointing first year under American ownership, Boehly said that he and co-owners Clearlake Capital have learned a lot about the transfer market and insists they will turn Chelsea back into winners. Chelsea is on track for their lowest Premier League finish despite spending over £600 million on new players since Boehly and Clearlake took over last May.
Despite criticism, Boehly remains optimistic about the future, especially as Chelsea closes in on the appointment of Mauricio Pochettino as their new head coach. Boehly said at the Milken Institute conference on Wednesday that "Our view though was that this is a long-term project and we are committed to the long-term. We very much believe that we are going to figure it out."
Boehly recognizes the challenge of building a team, and he stressed that the coach is the conductor of the team. He mentioned the importance of scouting different markets for top players, including the Portuguese, French, and English markets. Chelsea is also planning to reduce the size of their squad this summer by clearing out some players while ensuring they comply with the Financial Fair Play rules.
Chelsea is also ready to invest heavily in the transfer market again as they target a new striker, midfielder, and goalkeeper. Boehly said that the fans are demanding, and they want to win, and they understand that. They are committed to investing in the team and ensuring that they return to winning ways.
Chelsea fans will be hoping that Boehly and Clearlake Capital can keep their promises and take the club back to the top of English and European football. Chelsea has a rich history of success, and their fans demand nothing less than the best. The club has been linked with some big-name players, including Erling Haaland, who could be a key addition to the team if they can secure his signature. With Pochettino at the helm, Chelsea fans will be hoping for a new era of success at Stamford Bridge.
