Todd Boehly bought Chelsea in the spring of 2022 and is now considering acquiring one of the well-known and respected British media outlets.
Details: According to The Times, the current owner of Chelsea is seriously contemplating the purchase of the British publication The Telegraph. If he decides to take this step, neither the Premier League nor the UK government will stand in his way.
They have no objections to the owner of a football club also controlling one of the local media outlets.
Previously, we reported that Chelsea, despite some difficulties, remains in the race for a spot in the Champions League. However, Enzo Maresca's team might miss out on the tournament, even if they earn a spot based on sporting merit. The issue is that the French club Strasbourg, which shares the same owners as Chelsea, is also a contender for a Champions League spot.
Reminder: The Chelsea Supporters' Trust sent an open letter to the Premier League demanding its head, Richard Masters, investigate Todd Boehly's possible involvement with Vivid Seats, a company dealing with ticket exchange and resale.
