Last month, the American billionaire's consortium was chosen as the preferred bidder, despite Sir Jim Ratcliffe coming in with a late offer of over £4billion.

Arsenal unless their new American owners buck a worrying trend.It's a relief for everyone at Stamford Bridge that Todd Boehly's takeover has gone through and they can finally sign players again. But Chelsea is just a toy for them to play with.Look at all the other American owners in the Premier League - their US sports teams all do better than the teams they own over here.

Chelsea-mad OnlyFans star Astrid Wett has attracted criticism after calling for the club to erect a statue of Roman Abramovich outside Stamford Bridge stadium, despite his alleged links to despot war monger Vladimir Putin.Abramovich was effectively ousted as the club's owner following the UK government decision to freeze the assets of the billionaire in March, over his alleged links to Putin, who ordered the invasion of Ukraine.From a footballing perspective, the oil magnate oversaw perhaps the most successful period of the west London club's history, winning five Premier League titles, five FA Cups, three League Cups, two Community Shields, two UEFA Champions Leagues, to name just a few. With these titles in mind, Wett took to Twitter to say: "Roman Abramovich statue at Stamford Bridge for all he’s done as our owner, agreed?"Abramovich has owned the club since 2003, and technically still does, but a takeover by an American group led by Todd Boehly is believed to be close to completion.The reaction to Wett's tweet was mixed, with some people agreeing that Ambramovich made Chelsea a footballing force.Others couldn't look past the humanitarian element, as the war rages on in Ukraine and the businessman's alleged pal has been accused of war crimes.

Chelsea have seemingly ended their mammoth search for a new owner.Due to sanctions placed on current holder Roman Abramovich, as part of a nationwide crackdown on Russian oligarchs, the Blues have been unable to operate as normal.

Chelsea enjoy possessing one of the most expansive loan networks in the world.And as such, it seems like every other player has passed through the side at some point. Of course, this means the Blues have not been able to cater to every talented player that comes through their door, so there are no hard feelings when someone who’s not quite right for them does well at another rival club.However, there are instances where these players more than shine elsewhere.

Premier League has approved the £4.25bn takeover of Chelsea by Todd Boehly's consortium.All of the west London club's prospective board members have now passed the requisite owners’ and directors’ test. However, the completion of the Blues' purchase must still be cleared by the UK government, which has to issue a sale license.The government wants to ensure that none of the proceeds will go to Abramovich, who was hit with sanctions after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine over his alleged links to Vladimir Putin, and to get guarantees regarding his £1.6bn loan to the club he owned since 2003.An official statement from the league read: "The Premier League Board has today approved the proposed takeover of Chelsea Football Club by the Todd Boehly/Clearlake Consortium."The purchase remains subject to the Government issuing the required sale licence and the satisfactory completion of the final stages of the transaction."The Board has applied the Premier League’s Owners’ and Directors’ Test (OADT) to all prospective Directors, and undertaken the necessary due diligence."The members of the Consortium purchasing the club are affiliates of the Clearlake Capital Group, L.P., Todd Boehly, Hansjorg Wyss and Mark Walter.
