Gary Neville has given Chelsea a warning regarding their new ownership structure, suggesting that they could be at risk of repeating the mistakes that were made at Manchester United during Ed Woodward's stint as CEO.
Following the departure of Roman Abramovich, Boehly led a consortium to begin a new era at Stamford Bridge and with seemingly deep pockets, hopes were high for a productive first window under his stewardship. However, he is yet to appoint a senior figure to recruit players, instead choosing to conduct business himself in a similar fashion to Ed Woodward's management of United.
Previously, transfer negotiations were delegated to the experienced trio of Bruce Buck, Petr Cech and Marina Granovskaia but all three left the club earlier this year, meaning that a new management structure must be formed during the busy summer transfer window.
