Chelsea have confirmed that Todd Boehly and Mark Walter will sell their ownership interests in the club to Clearlake Capital, giving the private equity group full control of the Premier League side. Hansjörg Wyss will remain part of the ownership group as an important stakeholder.

Clearlake said it remains committed to long-term sporting success, continued investment in Chelsea’s men’s and women’s teams, academy, training facilities and wider infrastructure.
