Clearlake Capital is open to acquiring Todd Boehly’s shares in Chelsea Football Club, but they have no intention of selling their own stake in the team.
The majority shareholders, who hold a 62% share in the club, have expressed their unwavering commitment to Chelsea and are not looking to sell any of their shares.
Reports have surfaced suggesting that discussions are taking place between investors regarding potential buyouts. Boehly is reportedly prepared to sell his shares, despite being a prominent figure in the consortium that initially purchased the club.
According to sources, tensions have risen between Clearlake co-founder Behdad Eghbali and Boehly in recent months.
However, Clearlake Capital and Eghbali are standing firm in their decision not to sell any of their 61.5% stake in Chelsea Football Club under any circumstances.
