Chelsea manager, Thomas Tuchel, has insisted that the club
cannot be ‘sanctioned anymore.’
Tuchel said this while reacting to US billionaire, Todd
Boehly, agreeing on a deal to replace Abramovich as the club’s new owner.
Chelsea confirmed during the early hours of Saturday morning
that Boehly had struck a £4.25billion deal to buy the Blues from Abramovich.
Boehly and his consortium partners, Hansjorg Wyss, Mark
Walker and investment firm Clearlake Capital have battled past a host of
suitors to strike a deal to buy the West London club for the highest price ever
paid for a sports club.
But the UK government and Premier League still need to give
their approval before the sale is completed later this month.
Speaking on the development before Chelsea’s kick-off with
Wolves on Saturday, Tuchel told Sky Sports that it was ‘good news.’
Tuchel said, “Not relief, but it gives us an outlook that
terms are agreed.
“Hopefully, the process will be streamlined and go forward as soon as possible so we can act and not be sanctioned anymore. It’s good news.”
