Chelsea co-owner Todd Boehly is ‘hands-on’ behind the scenes and will be holding regular talks with boss Graham Potter and his Stamford Bridge squad, according to journalist Paul Brown. The Blues went into the international break sitting eight points adrift of Premier League table-toppers Arsenal and Boehly has not been afraid to make big alterations.
Boehly led a consortium which completed a £4.25billion takeover of Chelsea in May, ending Roman Abramovich’s lengthy reign in west London.
Although he allowed Thomas Tuchel to spend more than £250million during the summer transfer window, the German did not remain at Stamford Bridge for much longer.
That is because Boehly sacked Tuchel less than a week after the deadline, while he moved quickly to appoint Potter as his successor.
