Boehly bought a majority stake in Strasbourg back in June of this year, just over a year after he took over Chelsea following the departure of Roman Abramovich.

The 50-year-old has been pumping the money into the London club since his arrival in 2022.

The Stamford Bridge outfit have spent over £1BILLION on transfers alone since Boehly's arrival.

And they have twice broken the British transfer record with Enzo Fernandez (£107m) and Moises Caicedo (£115m).
