A View From The Bridge

Chelsea have received a massive financial boost from Los Angeles-based company

Chelsea have received a massive financial boost from Los Angeles-based Ares Management that could help fund more transfers in January under the guidance of manager Mauricio Pochettino.

The influx of cash comes as manager Mauricio Pochettino aims to revive Chelsea’s season after a slow injury-ridden start.

According to Football. London, Chelsea owners have secured a £415 million investment from Ares Management –  a private equity and real estate market company based in Los Angeles, United States.

The Blues brought in 12 new players over the summer but have struggled amidst an injury crisis. However, recent back-to-back wins have built momentum. New owners Todd Boehly and Clearlake Captain seem eager to capitalize by providing transfer funds as Chelsea target a top-four push.

While the exact amount allotted for transfers is unknown, Mauricio Pochettino looks set to have resources to improve his underperforming squad.

One potential target is Napoli striker Victor Osimhen, whom Chelsea pursued over the summer before signing young Nicolas Jackson instead. Osimhen has recently been linked with an exit after Napoli posted a controversial online video seen as mocking their star forward.

Chelsea may view Osimhen’s uncertain situation as a chance to finally land the Nigerian goalscorer. His arrival would provide a massive upgrade on Jackson and add much-needed potency up front.

However, prising Osimhen away mid-season could still prove difficult, especially without the appeal of Champions League football. But Chelsea’s new funding presents options in the market.

After an initial bedding-in period, Pochettino seems to be steadying the ship at Stamford Bridge. Off it, Boehly and Eghbali continue working to provide all possible support, both financially and strategically.

With fan unrest growing, Chelsea must carefully weigh their transfer decisions in January. But added investment ensures Pochettino can mould the squad to fit his tactical vision.
