Should Chelsea's owners be entering the dressing room? | Football Digest<\/h3>\n

Chelsea FC is exploring a deal that would add around \u00a3205million to the club’s debt as owner Todd Boehly and\u00a0Clearlake Capital look at new ways to invest in the Premier League franchise. The club has already seen significant investment by way of transfers since the American’s takeover, and Boehly is not looking to slow down any time soon.<\/p>\n

Since taking control of the club from Russian owner\u00a0Roman Abramovich in a deal worth \u00a34.2billion in 2022, Boehly has put his money where his mouth is. The American has spent over \u00a31bn on player transfers – with no fewer than 30 first-team players coming through the door.<\/p>\n

Deals including\u00a0over \u00a3205m on\u00a0Moises Caicedo and Enzo Fernandez have gone a long way to add to the sum, but are yet to yield any major improvement on the pitch. So far this season, under the management of Mauricio Pochettino, the Blues have registered two draws, three defeats and just one win in the Premier League – against newly promoted Luton Town.<\/p>\n

The results and lack of goals, having not scored in the league since the win in August, have called for fans to demand even more spending. Something which the club seems happy to oblige to.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

According to a report from\u00a0Bloomberg, Chelsea is exploring a \u00a3205m investment, bringing\u00a0Bank of America Corp. on board to provide guidance. Chelsea already has around \u00a3660m in loans which would take the club’s total debt to over the \u00a31bn mark.<\/p>\n

The loan also coincides with reports that the Blues are also seeking a\u00a0lucrative \u00a3330m investment with U.S. firm\u00a0Ares Management. The deal\u00a0would help contribute to the planned expansion of Stamford Bridge, something which Boehly stipulated after purchasing the club, saying \u00a31.7bn\u00a0would be invested in “further investment for the benefit of the club.”<\/p>\n

But not everyone believes that the changes at the club have been a positive thing. Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher addressed fans’ concerns that too many players have joined the club in a short space of time while appearing on the\u00a0Stick to Football podcast.<\/p>\n

“Yes, you need top players, but you need a connection in the dressing room, a connection with the manager, a connection with the crowd,” he said. “How can that ever happen at\u00a0Chelsea? I just don’t see it.<\/p>\n

“The manager changes every two minutes. There are players coming in left, right and center. There are probably two or three players for every position.<\/p>\n

“There has got to be a plan, a structure. Who are you bringing in? Who’s playing with who? The best teams will normally spend the most money, I understand that, but the way Chelsea have done it – spending so much in the last 12 months – there is more to it.”<\/p>\n

Chelsea is next in action tonight when they play Fulham in the Premier League.<\/p>\n
