Todd Boehly may have finally got his man in Mauricio Pochettino but he's also been left to reflect on another of his failed signings.
However, this time around it's not another underwhelming big-money player, but President of Business Tom Glick who is now heading for the exit door at Stamford Bridge - with one of Boehly's trusted allies replacing him. Glick came on board in July amid a glowing reputation, having previously served as Chief Commercial Officer of the City Football Group and a CEO at Derby.
And upon his initial appointment, the American businessman was glowing in his praise, saying: "Tom's successful track record as a leader and innovator at several respected and winning sport organisations made him the obvious choice for this position."
