Chelsea sale: Key figure in Todd Boehly consortium reveals 'unbelievable' Thomas Tuchel plan

A key figure in Todd Boehly's consortium bid to buy Chelsea from Roman Abramovich has offered insight into what manager Thomas Tuchel's future would be under their leadership, describing the German as 'unbelievable'.

Boehly's consortium is one of four bids still in the running to purchase the Blues from the Oligarch, along with Steve Pagliuca, the Ricketts family and a separate consortium led by Sir Martin Broughton. Final bids are due to be submitted by Monday, April 11 with the successful party presented for government approval in the week of April 18.

The American billionaire currently owns 20% of the LA Dodgers and previously carried out due diligence ahead of a bid for Chelsea back in 2019. However, Roman Abramovich made it clear at the time that he had no interest in selling.
