New Chelsea owner Todd Boehly has reportedly pledged a minimum of £200million to Thomas Tuchel in the transfer market this summer.
The American completed his takeover of the Blues last month to become Roman Abramovich’s successor at Stamford Bridge. Despite being in charge for under a month, Boehly has already made his presence felt in West London.
He has completely reshuffled the boardroom with Bruce Buck and Marina Granovskaia set to leave the club in the immediate future, whilst plans are also in place for major additions to the playing squad. Signing a centre-back is at the forefront of Chelsea's plans following the departures of Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rudiger.
