Todd Boehly 'wants to buy' Ligue 1 club less than a year after £4.25bn Chelsea takeover

Chelsea chair Todd Boehly is interested in buying Ligue 1 club Strasbourg.

Boehly already co-owns two basketball teams - Los Angeles Sparks and Los Angeles Lakers - as well as baseball side Los Angeles Dodgers. The American is looking to expand his sporting empire and has held talks with Strasbourg's president Marc Keller, who has been in charge of the French side since 2012, about a potential takeover.

Boehly has splashed the cash since his consortium completed a takeover of Chelsea last summer - investing close to £600million into the squad. That investment is yet to pay dividends, with Graham Potter's side languishing in 10th in the Premier League table.
