𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗹𝘀𝗲𝗮 - 𝘁𝗵𝗲 £𝟮𝗯𝗻 𝗯𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗲 💵🔥 About one year ago, two years after the Boehly and Clearlake consortium aquired Chelsea FC, I was perplexed. Their investment model made absolutely no sense to me. It appeared to be a premium puppy farm - overpay on top young prospects with the ambition of turning them into an elite squad, whilst selling the others for profit. Like Brighton’s model but on steroids. It simply wasn’t financially viable though because unlike Brighton: 1. Many of the recruitment choices were poor; 2. It was done with no footballing strategy and so it left Chelsea with an incoherent squad that struggled to perform - environment is crucial to development; 3. Chelsea were paying a premium for players, along with higher salaries for their age group and performance levels - which means there is a much smaller resale market, especially if the players growth trajectory slows. And the growth trajectories did slow because Chelsea declined. Without a coherent football strategy, performances fell off, Chelsea dropped to 12th, managers came and went. It was a shambles. My interpretation was this - their strategy was stupid and so were they for not pivoting. I assumed that there was no way their investors would continue to back them because of the losses they were generating. I made this interpretation because I naturally assumed that they were backed with commercial, savvy money. There’s plenty of dumb money around - but none so dumb that they’d hold for such a circus. Chelsea’s losses were so significant that they had to sell assets intra-group to generate meaningless book profits in order to avoid sanctions from regulators. It worked in the Premier League (because the rules are weak) but not with Uefa (who have tougher rules). Chelsea are facing a fine of up to €80m and potentially expulsion from Uefa competitions if they do not get their financial house in order. And this was a relatively weak sanction for the breach. The losses were that big. And yet… investors haven’t backed out. The money keeps piling in. The strategy shifts… but the core element of it (excessive spending on young, potential talent) continues. This does not make sense. At the group parent level, a £1.055 billion loss was made in just 2 years. Projecting the accounts, it could be as high as £1.5bn, 3 years in (despite the success in the Club World Cup). Now, some people argue that investors are not concerned by such losses given they’re paper losses - they don’t represent the true cash implications. My response to that is to look at the cash… If we focus on the core asset of the group, Chelsea FC Holdings Ltd, we can examine what external cash has been pumped into the club by investors in order to keep it operational and make the player investments it has made. £2.5 billion was spent to acquire the shares. £1.5 billion has been injected over the course of 3 years in the form of equity, intra-group asset transfers and owner loans (I assume these will be converted to equity in due course). £100m at point of acquisition (T0) £503m in the first year (T1) £570m in the second year (T2) £339m in the third year (T3) £4bn total. So, you’d expect the value of Chelsea to be at least £4bn by now. You’d certainly expect the squad value to have significantly increased given the extensive investment that’s gone into it. However, Transfermarkt appraises the increased value of Chelsea’s squad at just €335m (£290m) over the past 3 years. Forbes published its latest annual valuation of Europe’s top clubs on 30 May 2025 and Chelsea’s was just £2.4bn. £100m LESS than it was purchased for. That in itself is bad. But it gets worse…

🚨🔵 Alejandro Garnacho wants Premier League move… and Chelsea remain again attentive to the situation. No club to club talks but still one of the names on the shortlist. Priority remains to advance on Xavi Simons at this stage. 🇳🇱 🎥🇦🇷 youtu.be/c9GyT8AxK6k
