Finally revealed! When Todd Boehly’s first Chelsea signing will be announced
Todd Boehly, an American billionaire, is set to complete his purchase of Chelsea FC in the coming days.
Todd Boehly’s group is set to herald in a new era for the club, and we can only hope that it will be an improvement on Roman Abramovich’s outstanding work.
Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel has often stated that, despite the fact that some targets have already been identified, the sanctions prevent Chelsea from moving forward.
According to reports, Sevilla defender Jules Kounde will be the first signing of Todd Boehly’s tenure.
Last season, Kounde and Chelsea established an agreement, and rumors indicate that it has already smoothed the way for Chelsea to sign the 23-year-old this summer.
Chelsea are eager to make the move happen since he is considered as a replacement for the outgoing Antonio Rudiger. It is understood that the La Liga club is asking a sum in the area of £59 million.
Chelsea are closing in on the Frenchman, according to Andreas Korssund of The Sun.
Korssung tweeted: “Jules Kounde is closing in on a move to Chelsea.
“The Blues will conclude talks with Sevilla as soon as (Todd) Boehly’s takeover is complete and they are ready to pay the required fee.
“Personal terms have already been agreed and the Frenchman is only waiting for Chelsea.”
