Todd Boehly has taken the next step towards transforming Chelsea after the American-led consortium completed a £4.25billion takeover of the west London club on Monday. The LA Dodger co-owner has found a potential replacement for the Blues' reigning transfer chief, Marina Granovskaia.
The Russian businesswoman, who is renowned for leading the club's transfer and contract negotiations, has been long-serving director at Stamford Bridge. But, being a close ally and trusted member of Roman Abramovich's network at Stamford Bridge has caused concern.
Regardless of the looming doubt regarding Granovskaia's future at Chelsea, the club's new ownership group are expected to 'push for A-list signings' to mark a new era at Stamford Bridge, according to the MailOnline. And, with Boehly eager to bolster the Blues' armoury, The Telegraph indicate that after player sales are taken into account, Thomas Tuchel is set to have £200million at his disposal to strengthen his side.
