Todd Boehly-Led Group Has Signed Contract to Buy Chelsea From Abramovich, per Report

After the club has seen weeks of tumult following the ousting of longtime owner Roman Abramovich, Chelsea F.C. appears to have settled on its future.

A group led by Todd Boehly, a part-owner of MLB’s Dodgers, has reportedly signed a contract to purchase the club, according to multiple reports. Mark Walter, the Dodgers’ principal owner, is also part of the group.

Boehly’s group beat out other big names in search of purchasing the club. Cubs owner Tom Ricketts was at one point interested, and a group that included Serena Williams and Lewis Hamilton was also in play.
