Although we do not yet know the identity of who will next own Chelsea Football Club, the rumours and speculation over key figures who will make up that new hierarchy certainly makes for interesting reading. And subsequently, the effects that will have on how the club approaches transfer windows moving forward.
Last week we got reports that all four of the shortlisted bidders by Raine want to keep current director Marina Granovskaia on board for the foreseeable future. By Friday morning, one of the bidders had fallen, the Ricketts Family ruling themselves out of the race.
The Todd Boehly consortium, the Sir Martin Broughton group and Stephen Pagliuca are left, with two of the trio also focusing on filling the vacated technical director position that has not been occupied since Michael Emenalo left the club in November 2017.
