The revolving door at Stamford Bridge has spun once more, but this time, the narrative feels entirely different. Following a turbulent campaign that culminated in a sobering FA Cup final defeat to Manchester City, the Chelsea hierarchy has delivered a true blockbuster announcement. Xabi Alonso is officially the new manager of Chelsea Football Club, signing […]
If you’ve been following Chelsea over the previous decade, you are accustomed to seeing some ups and downs. After all, this is a team that reached the highest level of European football glory as recently as five years ago, only to spend the next couple of seasons being very average.

He’s played his heart out for […]
Clearlake Capital has once again confirmed its long-term commitment to Chelsea, effectively putting an end to rumours of a potential sale. The firm have also signalled their readiness to potentially increase its stake, even as Todd Boehly, the current chairman, prepares to step down.

Chelsea are heading back to Wembley Stadium. The Blues made the most of a plum draw in the FA Cup quarter-finals, demolishing a Port Vale side battling relegation from League One by a 7-0 scoreline.
