Other investors include Mark Walter, a US billionaire who is also a co-owner of the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new owners have committed not to sell a majority ownership in the club until 2032 and have offered promises on dividends and debt, according to source.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The consortium said that it will invest \u00a31.75 billion in Chelsea, including &#8220;investments at Stamford Bridge, the academy, the women&#8217;s team, and Kingsmeadow, as well as continuous funding for the Chelsea Foundation.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chelsea indicated in a statement that the deal will be completed in late May. The English football authorities and the UK government must both approve the takeover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chelsea is operating under a special government license that expires on May 31, but Culture Secretary Nadine Dorries stated last month that the team was on &#8220;borrowed time&#8221; to complete the sale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Only a bidder who passes the Premier League&#8217;s owners and director\u2019s test can sign off on a transaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Forbes, Boehly, an American investor and businessman, is worth $4.5 billion (\u00a33.6 billion).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He owns a share in the legendary LA Lakers NBA franchise and is a part owner of the Dodgers, a US baseball team, and the Los Angeles Sparks, a US women&#8217;s basketball team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His group also comprises Barbara Charone, an American public relations specialist, Jonathan Goldstein, a British businessman, and Daniel Finkelstein, a British journalist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other consortiums in the running to buy Chelsea included Sir Martin Broughton and Stephen Pagliuca, co-owner of the Boston Celtics, but they were advised in late April that their bids were rejected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sir Jim Ratcliffe, the biggest shareholder of the chemical company Ineos, made a late offer, but it was accepted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the most important development since Chelsea was placed up for sale, with the Boehly consortium now confident of closing one of the most costly sporting transactions ever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Premier League is unlikely to object, and the government is eager to conclude the transaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With rival bidder British billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe raising worries about Clearlake Capital&#8217;s main role in the Boehly consortium, I understand the club has received assurances that the group will commit to controlling the club for at least 10 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another aim, I&#8217;m told, is to reassure fans and differentiate them from the Glazers, the American family that owns Manchester United.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chelsea has reached an agreement to sell the club for \u00a34.25 billion ($5.2 billion)
