Ousmane Dembele is rumored to be ready to leave Boehly and return to Inter Milan, with a reported bid for Serge Gnabry. Chelsea’s top scorer is also set to tell his club he wants to leave the English Premier League, a report claims. In a different report, Chelsea’s Romelu Lukaku wants to return to Inter Milan and Cristiano Ronaldo is keen on a move to Real Madrid.
Serge Gnabry is a top scorer at Chelsea
In the past, Serge Gnabry has been overlooked for the Premier League, but he has made a huge impact for Chelsea this season. The French midfielder spent last season on loan at West Brom and made just three Premier League appearances. However, despite his impressive performance, Tony Pulis ruled Gnabry was not ready for the Premier League. Instead, he stated that academy football doesn’t prepare players for league football.
Having spent four years with Arsenal, Serge Gnabry has since switched to the Bundesliga and has climbed the pecking order with the Bundesliga champions. It seems unlikely that the Frenchman would want to leave his current club, but Chelsea have made a tentative enquiry after losing out to Barcelona for Raphinha. Chelsea will be keen to add more strikers to their squad and this is one way to improve their attacking options.
During the season, Serge Gnabry has scored six goals for Chelsea, and he could yet go back to the Premier League. Bayern Munich have made a contract offer to Gnabry, but it is still unclear whether the Frenchman will accept it. The player is in the final year of his contract, so the club will have to wait until the summer to decide if it is worth it for him to move on to the Premier League.
Ousmane Dembele wants to leave Boehly
In an interview, Ousmane Dembele has stated that he wants to leave Boehly and join Barcelona. He wants to move to a bigger club because he feels the pressure at the Nou Camp is too much. The Frenchman also wants to sign for a big club to give him more playing time, but his contract at Barcelona runs out in the summer.
It was widely reported last week that Dembele would join the Premier League side, but there was no concrete news as to why he is seeking a move to the Premier League. However, there are rumours that Chelsea are interested in signing Dembele to replace Romelu Lukaku. The Belgian international has a history of injury, and the Blues’ new owner, Tood Boehly, has repeatedly dismissed that theory.
The deal between Chelsea and Dembele will be worth PS150m, and Chelsea are willing to spend PS150m on both players. Boehly would like Dembele to join the club after his current deal at Barcelona expires. Boehly would like to sign Dembele, as he has worked with the German coach at Borussia Dortmund. Alternatively, the Blues would like to sign Dembele and Sterling for PS150 million.
Cristiano Ronaldo wants to leave Manchester United
With just a year left on his contract, Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has been told that Cristiano Ronaldo is keen to leave. The Portuguese international has been frustrated with his team’s lack of ambition in recent years. He has also expressed his desire to play in the Champions League. United’s pre-season tour is kicking off this Tuesday in Bangkok, and ten Hag says he is relaxed over the situation.
While Ronaldo has expressed his desire to leave the Red Devils, he has also made it clear that he has a lot more pressing reasons. The club will be missing out on the Champions League next season, which will make it even more crucial for Ronaldo to play in Europe. As a result, he has already been linked with Chelsea, Bayern Munich, Napoli, and other top European clubs.
Despite publicly insisting that he is not for sale, Ronaldo is said to have asked Manchester United for permission to leave if a’satisfactory offer’ comes in. Ronaldo is under contract at the Old Trafford club until the summer of 2018. Although he has been linked with a move to Roma or Sporting Lisbon, he is yet to report for pre-season training.
Romelu Lukaku wants a return to Inter Milan
Former Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku has made it clear that he wants a return to Inter Milan. His move to the Italian club was an unhappy one, with the Belgian’s performances being less than impressive. But the 2022 World Cup will surely inspire the striker. During the last pre-season, Lukaku overlapped with Chelsea and Inter coach Simone Inzaghi. Lukaku signed with Chelsea in the summer, but his move to Manchester City was finalized in January. Lukaku completed his medical and told Inter officials about his choice.
But it is not clear how much Inter can afford to pay Lukaku if he joins them on a permanent deal. The club could extend the loan for another season, or even a full season. But Inter cannot afford to lose him permanently. In the meantime, he helped Inter win the Serie A title in the 2020-2021 season. Lukaku has struggled for form under Thomas Tuchel.
Christian Pulisic unhappy with his situation at Chelsea
It looks like American international Christian Pulisic is not happy with his situation at Chelsea. His father, Mark Pulisic, has taken to social media to express his frustration. In the past five games, Christian Pulisic has featured only as a substitute, making him a fringe player at best. Since signing for PS58million in January, he has made just 33 appearances in all competitions, mainly as a substitute. He has also missed a number of games due to injuries, having played only three full matches for the Blues this season.
The youngster’s unhappiness has been apparent in recent weeks, and his father has expressed his displeasure over his lack of playing time. While he will likely meet with the head coach on Monday, the fact that he hasn’t received enough minutes to be considered a “problem” at Chelsea is concerning for both him and his parents. The teen has deleted the Chelsea FC logo from his Instagram bio, and has yet to post an update on his situation.
Todd Boehly’s consortium has completed their takeover of Chelsea
American billionaire Todd Boehly will take over as the controlling owner of Chelsea. The takeover will give him equal voting rights and ownership of the club, but the deal will not be completed until all necessary licences are granted. Boehly is currently the part-owner of Major League Baseball side the Los Angeles Dodgers. The US investment firm Clearlake Capital, co-founded by Boehly, will take a majority stake in Chelsea, with Boehly acting as chairman.
The sale was delayed until today, when the government and the Premier League approved the deal. The government wanted to make sure that Abramovich didn’t benefit from the sale, so the consortium passed the test. The British government then approved the deal on Wednesday. Boehly and his consortium are now the new owners of Chelsea FC. The new owners will share control and governance of the club with Boehly’s investment firm, Clearlake Capital.
The consortium’s takeover of Chelsea includes the new owners’ plans to invest in the club’s academy, Stamford Bridge and the women’s team’s stadium, Kingsmeadow. They will also invest in the Chelsea Foundation. Todd Boehly’s consortium has also submitted a detailed plan for the first-team stadium. They plan to build a stadium that rivals the best in Europe.
Todd Boehly’s consortium has brought in Goldstein as a partner
Todd Boehly’s consortium is running Chelsea in the same way that the Fenway Sports Group runs Liverpool. Goldstein is an avid Spurs fan and a long-time associate of Boehly. The team is also getting a boost from the investment of Mark Walter, founder of Guggenheim Partners. Goldstein has a background in real estate and is a Tottenham Hotspur fan.
Boehly has not been involved in football since his days as a child, but his ancestry is German. He played on the school’s wrestling team and won consecutive IAC championships. The London High School’s wrestling facility was renamed the Boehly Family’s Wrestling Room in 2014. Neither of Boehly nor Goldstein are planning to own any sports franchises, but they will hold non-executive board director roles at Chelsea. Whether Boehly will be the face of the consortium is unclear.
The deal is subject to Premier League approval. Boehly is the co-owner of the Los Angeles Dodgers. He is a former head of the Jewish Leadership Council and a fan of Tottenham Hotspur. The consortium has made an offer of $3 billion for Chelsea. The deal has the backing of Mark Walter, who is also a part owner of the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Todd Boehly’s consortium helped bring the Dodgers
The consortium included David Geffen, Mark Walter, Hansjorg Wyss and Todd Boehly, who is part owner of the Los Angeles Dodgers. The team is part of Boehly’s holding company Eldridge Industries. They are also the owners of the Los Angeles Sparks and a 27% stake in the Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers are the third-most valuable team in the NBA, valued at $5.14 billion. Todd Boehly is also one of the five initial bidders for the Denver Broncos, but the deal hasn’t been finalized yet.
In 2012, the Dodgers were purchased by Boehly’s Guggenheim umbrella for $2.1 billion. While Boehly is not the principal owner, he has been a big fan of Boehly’s ownership. He is credited with bringing the team to Los Angeles. As the team’s president and CEO, he oversees one of the highest payrolls in baseball. The Los Angeles Dodgers have four players making over $20 million a year. The team’s highest-paid player is Freddie Freeman, who will earn $49.5 million in 2022.
