Former Chelsea icon Paul Canoville has told the potential new owners three things they need to do to win the supporters over this summer ahead of the April deadline.
Todd Boehly and the Ricketts Family seem to be the two frontrunners in this everchanging race with both consortiums having been shown Cobham already, whilst also meeting Canoville to discuss diversity and inclusion strategy. The former of the pair was even pictured and filmed at Stamford Bridge watching on from the executive box as Chelsea fell to a first-leg Champions League defeat against Real Madrid. It was a move that went down well in the fanbase.
All interested parties have until April 18 to improve their offers as the Raine Group in conjunction with senior Chelsea figures prepare for the next phase of the new ownership search. Whoever is to win the race has a number of issues to sort out. Who do they bring in during their first transfer windows to try and back up their claims made in their pitches? Does long-term target Declan Dice definitely sign now? Can we hand Thomas Tuchel a new contract? How do we keep Antonio Rüdiger?
