New Chelsea owner Todd Boehly claims Saudi takeover of Newcastle means the 'Big Six will become the Big Seven'... as American predicts 'there is going to be opportunity for EVERYONE to win' the league in the years to come

Todd Boehly is convinced that Newcastle will establish themselves alongside the likes of Chelsea, Manchester City and Liverpool by forming a 'Big Seven' in the Premier League.

English football's top flight already has an established group of teams that have been dubbed the 'Big Six' - Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Man City, Manchester United and Tottenham.

But Boehly, Chelsea's new owner alongside private equity firm Clearlake Capital after completing their £4.25billion takeover from Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich, believes it is only a matter of time before Newcastle solidify themselves as one of the country's elite teams.
