Thomas Tuchel commits to Chelsea future and plans solutions with Todd Boehly amid Blues takeover

Thomas Tuchel has confirmed his desire to stay at Chelsea with the club on the verge of new ownership. A group led by Todd Boehly and including Clearlake Capital, Mark Walter and Hansjoerg Wyss have agreed a deal to acquire the club from Roman Abramovich.

The takeover is expected soon, with late May having been touted as when the move could be confirmed. It has been suggested that those involved in the process have found a solution to satisfy the government money will not be direct to Abramovich, but reports remain conflicting.

Tuchel has had to deal with the press and take on topics he never likely considered when signing his contract in early 2021 or even his extension following the Champions League win. However, as the process has developed, the German coach has simply acknowledged there is little he can do to impact the situation and maintains that he feels wanted at the club.
