Chelsea co-owner Todd Boehly has attempted to dismiss concerns over boardroom tensions but refused to guarantee that the club’s current ownership structure will remain in place next year.
Speaking at the Financial Times Business of Football Summit, Todd Boehly addressed concerns over his relationship with Clearlake Capital amid reports of a potential buyout. While downplaying the tension, he refused to confirm whether the ownership structure would remain the same next year, stating, “I can’t predict the future.”
Boehly also defended his recruitment strategy following fan criticism, arguing that signing a top striker isn’t as simple as picking one off a shelf. He shrugged off recent protests from Chelsea supporters, calling criticism “par for the course” in football ownership. Additionally, he outlined his vision for a global TV rights deal similar to the MLS’s Apple TV partnership, suggesting the Premier League should explore new revenue models.
