Report: LA Dodgers Owner Todd Boehly Considering 2nd Bid for Chelsea FC

Los Angeles Dodgers part-owner Todd Boehly is reportedly considering a new bid to take over Premier League club Chelsea despite suggestions Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich has no interest in selling.

Matt Law of the Telegraph wrote that Boehly—who is said to have a net worth of almost £5 billion—has prioritised Chelsea as he continues his search to buy a club in the top tier of English football.

Abramovich is understood to value his club at more than £3 billion and isn't interested in entering negotiations, though that isn't thought to have deterred Boehly in his pursuit.
