Alonso hails Chelsea ambition after Boehly exit

Chelsea manager Alonso has praised the club's clear ambition after a change in ownership. Clearlake Capital has taken full control of the club, ending Todd Boehly's chairmanship.

According to MyJoyOnline Ghana, Clearlake Capital, led by Behdad Eghbali and José E. Feliciano, bought out the minority stakes held by Boehly and Mark Walter. Boehly will step down as chairman, but Hansjörg Wyss will retain a stake and remain an active partner.

The club's day-to-day operations will not change, with no alterations to the executive leadership, staff, or long-term strategy. This includes continued investment in youth talent, recruitment, and infrastructure projects. Boehly reflected on his time at Chelsea, stating it has been an honour to serve as chairman and he is confident the club is well-positioned for success under Clearlake's leadership.
