Todd Boehly's first words after his consortium completes takeover of Chelsea

Todd Boehly has detailed his consortium's "vision" for Chelsea Football Club after the takeover was finally announced. The American and Clearlake Capital's consortium are now the new ownership group of Chelsea.

A statement from Boehly read: "We are honoured to become the new custodians of Chelsea Football Club. We’re all in – 100% -- every minute of every match.

"Our vision as owners is clear: we want to make the fans proud. Along with our commitment to developing the youth squad and acquiring the best talent, our plan of action is to invest in the Club for the long term and build on Chelsea’s remarkable history of success. I personally want to thank ministers and officials in the British government, and the Premier League, for all their work in making this happen."
