Chelsea's owners have been in place for more than three weeks, but it was on Wednesday morning that the new era really appeared to take hold at Stamford Bridge. In confirming members of the Chelsea board, Todd Boehly made clear that the transformation was the launching point for the vision of the new owners.
The new chairman said: "As custodians of Chelsea FC, we now begin executing our long-term vision and plan for the Club, creating an outstanding experience for its passionate, loyal fans, and continuing to challenge for top honours in line with Chelsea FC's decorated history. Working together, side-by-side, we are firmly committed to winning, both on and off the pitch. For us, that effort has begun."
With the departure of Marina Granovskaia and Bruce Buck from their senior roles, the new faces of Chelsea are now firmly in place. New figures in charge of making the important decisions and custodians to bear the responsibility of improving and taking care of the Club.
