New Chelsea owner Todd Boehly has used Liverpool as an example of a 'great model' to follow in the transfer window.
During Roman Abramovich's 19 years in charge at Chelsea, money was no option. The Russian was renowned for big deals from Fernando Torres to Romelu Lukaku and many more including Kepa Arrizabalaga, who is second-choice at Stamford Bridge despite making a £71m move from Athletic Bilbao in 2018, which remains a world-record fee for a goalkeeper.
But Abramovich was forced to put the club up for sale in March after he was sanctioned over his links to Russian president Vladimir Putin.
