Thomas Tuchel has been warned that Chelsea could slip into the same trap as Arsenal and Manchester United following the club's takeover. The Blues will be under new ownership from Monday after the consortium led by Todd Boehly reached a definitive agreement to complete its £4.25billion purchase from Roman Abramovich.
The west London side have kickstarted the tenure at Stamford Bridge in a promising fashion, with the American billionaire seemingly eager to splash the cash this summer. Boehly's consortium are expected to 'push for A-list signings' to mark a new era at Stamford Bridge, according to the MailOnline.
And, with the new ownership group eager to bolster the Blues armoury, The Telegraph indicate that, after player sales are taken into account, Tuchel is set to have £200million at his disposal to strengthen his side. However, while the future may seem bright, Paul Merson has warned the fans, and the German boss alike, that the club could fall down the same route as Arsenal and United.
