Clearlake Capital has officially taken full control of Chelsea Football Club, acquiring the remaining stakes from co-owners Todd Boehly and Mark Walter. The move signifies a significant shift in the club's ownership structure, with the private equity firm now holding complete authority.
Boehly and Walter were part of the consortium that purchased Chelsea from Roman Abramovich in May 2022. Clearlake Capital was the majority shareholder in that deal, and this latest transaction consolidates their ownership. The departure of Boehly and Walter marks the end of their direct involvement in the club's management.
