Ex-Chelsea boss Andre Villas-Boas believes his former side have lost 'one of the greatest CEOs' after Todd Boehly's decision which saw Marina Granovskaia leave.
Boehly's consortium finalised their takeover of the Blues earlier this year, ending Roman Abramovich's 19-year stint as Chelsea owner. Since the American owner took charge there has been a wave of change to the Blues' hierarchy with the likes of Petr Cech and Granovskaia both departing the club, with the Blues now looking for a new director of football and chief executive.
Christoph Freund was tipped to become the new director of football at Stamford Bridge, but talks fell through despite there being a verbal agreement between Freund and the Blues, football.london understands. Boehly has already sacked his first manager at the club with Thomas Tuchel being replaced by Graham Potter and Villas-Boas has discussed the role Granovskaia played at Stamford Bridge.
