talkSPORT's Ben Jacobs delivers an update on Chelsea owner Todd Bohely's internal affairs at the club.
Todd Boehly has to make a decision on his future as Chelsea co-owner amid a potential buyout involving Clearlake Capital . Chelsea were sold in May 2022 in a deal worth £4.25billion after their previous owner Roman Abramovich was sanctioned for his links to Russian president Vladimir Putin amid Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
"And some sources say also that he was more in favour of keeping Mauricio Pochettino, but in fairness, he had a veto so could've stopped his departure and he didn't, he went with the majority and that's what you want, that collaborative model where there's freedom to challenge. "But Clearlake don't have to do that much because they're the majority owner so status quo is fine for them, if Boehly wants to leave they'll buy him out and then the big question is, if Boehly makes an offer to Clearlake Capital, would they consider it?
"And at the moment sources say they'll reject anything, which means the most likely scenarios are Boehly will try, will fail and then will leave and Clearlake will own 100 per cent of the club. Or alternatively, they'll get in a room, they'll make up and the status quo will remain." "In 2027, Boehly will no longer be chair, and Clearlake Capital and Behdad Eghbali will pick the new chair and in addition to that, Clearlake are driving this data-driven approach.
