Todd Boehly makes huge Liverpool and Man City transfer decision after £200m Thomas Tuchel talks

Todd Boehly has handed Thomas Tuchel a huge vote of confidence ahead of the upcoming transfer window, with the new Chelsea owners eager to bolster the Blues squad. The American-led consortium, who agreed a £4.25billion deal to buy the west London club last week, are expected to 'push for A-list signings' to mark a new era at Stamford Bridge, according to the MailOnline.

With the LA Dodgers co-owner eager to bolster the Blues' armoury, The Telegraph indicate that after player sales are taken into account, Tuchel is set to have £200million at his disposal to strengthen his side. The report adds that the new owners have promised the German that he can 'take the lead' on Chelsea’s transfer business in a shift designed to move closer to the Manchester City and Liverpool models.

It's believed that Boehly is keen to narrow the gap between the west Londoners and the Premier League's runaway title contenders. According to The Guardian, Raheem Sterling, Christopher Nkunku, Jonathan David, Darwin Nunez and Ousmane Dembele have already been added to Chelsea's summer wish list.
