London's most expensive club, Chelsea is in a period of great internal turmoil. Relations between team owners have reached a nadir. The American businessman, Todd Boehly, one of the main investors, is said to be determined to gain full control of the club, proposing to buy all the shares.


Todd Boehly's side will look to acquire a majority stake and take full control of the English club, while Behad Egbali's side are unwilling to lose their 60% stake. Boehly, for his part, owns 13% of the shares and was the one who allegedly ran the developments at the Londoners. But as the English press reveals, the decisions in the English team are made by Egbali and Feliciano, who are unhappy with Boehly's attempt to draw the spotlight on him, as the "boss" of the "blues".


This is why the two sides have taken "battle" positions and are preparing to push each other out of Chelsea.


Boehly's proposal comes at a time when Chelsea are facing significant difficulties both on and off the pitch. Her team has not been able to gain stability in recent seasons and the results are not as expected. Despite the strengthening of its soul potential and the change in the leadership technique, where now the Italian, Enzo Maresca is the man who holds its "helm".


According to information, the tension between Clearlake Capital, which holds a significant block of shares, and Todd Boehly and his partners, has escalated dangerously.


The American investor is said to be worried about the implications of this feud and is said to be proposing a radical solution: a full takeover of Chelsea, thereby removing Clearlake from administration.


Sources say Boehly sees the takeover as the only way to avoid a long and destructive civil war. Clearlake Capital, however, is reportedly fighting back, saying it is unwilling to divest its stake.


Boehly appears determined to push through, claiming he can raise more than £2.5bn to table an enticing offer, which would exceed the amount of investment made in Chelsea to date.


This move by the American reportedly finds supporters in other investors within the club. If the takeover goes through, the management will have free rein to lead Chelsea back to success, both in the Premier League and the Champions League.
