Mail Sport Reports Todd Boehly’s Removal as Chelsea Chairman in 2027
According to Mail Sport, an extraordinary agreement between Chelsea’s American co-owners will see Todd Boehly removed as chairman in 2027.
The agreement allows for the chairmanship to be passed between the co-owners every five years, with the first opportunity arising at the end of the 2026/2027 season.
Despite holding a minority stake, Boehly is reported to have “gone first” under the terms of the group’s takeover. Clearlake Capital, managed by fellow owners Behdad Eghbali and Jose Feliciano, holds a 61.5% share in the club’s holding company, while Boehly shares the remaining 38.5% with Hansjorg Wyss and Mark Walter.
