Chelsea fans got their wish this summer as Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital were made the club's newest owners, and a period of change began in London.
After Roman Abramovich's money and trophy-laden 19 years at Stamford Bridge, the fresh-faced Boehly has come into the club and given it an immediate shakeup. He has already plunged himself deep into the economic and cut-throat world of European football's negotiations and finance, alongside allowing key senior boardroom members Marina Granovskaia and Bruce Buck to leave the club.
Boehly is currently acting as interim sporting director as he attempts to bring in a collection of Thomas Tuchel's desired transfer targets as reinforcement for the upcoming season. Although there is still no tangible evidence of this work yet, the imminent transfer of Raheem Sterling - with the possibility of adding his Manchester City teammate Nathan Ake to that list shortly - things are starting to heat up on the corridors of Cobham.
