Boehly was the face of the consortium which bought the club four years ago in a £2.5bn deal.
In March 2025, Boehly said Chelsea’s owners could go their separate ways if they could not agree on the future of Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea bosses are considering whether to leave Stamford Bridge or to expand, with Earl’s Court seen as a possible new location.All options are being evaluated, with the project said to be complicated by the limited space in London to build.In an interview with Bloomberg, Boehly said: “We have to think long term about what we’re trying to accomplish.”We have a big stadium development opportunity that we have to flesh out.
