Chelsea’s new owners, led by Todd Boehly, have been announced as the club’s new owners.
However, in the early stages of Todd Boehly’s tenure, there is a sense of unease among Chelsea supporters.
Chelsea has yet to make a signing, and the club’s transfer policy appears to be glacial.
Chelsea has been connected with a number of players in the transfer market, but none of their signings have been confirmed.
Chelsea supporters were accustomed to Roman Abramovich’s manner, which saw the Russian spend lavishly in the transfer market when the team needed to be strengthened.
Chelsea spent £97.5 million for Romelu Lukaku last summer. Kai Havertz, Timo Werner, Ben Chilwell, and Edouard Mendy were all signed two years ago for about £200 million.
A Chelsea fan’s message to Roman Abramovich went viral when he expressed his displeasure with the new owners.
Chelsea’s new owner, Todd Boehly, has stated that the club must adhere to the Financial Fair Play regulations.
At the SuperReturn International conference in Berlin, Boehly remarked, “Financial fair play is starting to receive some fangs, and that will limit the capacity to buy players at any price.”
“UEFA takes it very seriously and will continue to do so.” [More teeth] entails monetary penalties as well as exclusion from athletic events.”
Hello, Abramovich. New Chelsea FC owners aren't signing any players.

“We believe this sport’s worldwide presence is underdeveloped,” Boehly continued.
“There are four billion football enthusiasts in Europe.” The NFL has a fan base of 170 million people. The media budget for global club football is a tenth of that of the NFL.
“We’ll also be looking about how we might increase money for the players.”
“Take LeBron James of the NBA, for example. He has an entire company and a whole crew dedicated to what happens off the court.”
“I believe there is a potential to bring some of that American mindset to English sports and enhance them.”
