Todd Boehly continues Chelsea restructure as Liverpool and Man City benefit from backroom exodus

Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital have continued to implement a new vision at Chelsea since completing their £4.25billion takeover at Stamford Bridge last year. The takeover was followed by Marina Granovskaia, Bruce Buck and Petr Cech all leaving their respective roles.

The Blues spent close to £300million in Boehly's first summer transfer window in charge, bringing in eight new signings including the likes of Raheem Sterling, Wesley Fofana and Kalidou Koulibaly. Graham Potter now has the chance to add players that fit his play style and tactical ideas after inheriting Thomas Tuchel's squad back in September.

Chelsea have altered their focus in the transfer market under Boehly with there being a shift towards investing in talented youngsters from across Europe. David Datro Fofana became the Blues first signing of the January transfer window with Monaco defender Benoit Badiashile expected to become the second new arrival as he edges closer to finalising a £33million move.
