Thomas Tuchel has described his working relationship with new Chelsea owner Todd Boehly as 'intense', having previously spoken about how previous owner Roman Abramovich operated.
The Blues have kicked off their new dawn with the first signing in the men's team as Raheem Sterling was unveiled in Los Angeles on Thursday afternoon after joining his new teammates on their pre-season tour.
football.london understands Chelsea will pay Manchester City an initial fee worth around £45million for Sterling. A further £10m will be due to the Premier League champions if a number of performance-related add-ons are met throughout the 27-year-old's time at Stamford Bridge.
