Todd Boehly eyes first Chelsea transfer after Graham Potter sacking as 'full agreement' reached

Todd Boehly looks set to complete his first Chelsea transfer after sacking Graham Potter as manager on Sunday evening. The Blues have spent over £600million on new signings since Boehly and the Clearlake Capital consortium completed a £4.25billion takeover at Stamford Bridge.

Potter was selected as the man to replace Thomas Tuchel at Chelsea back in September last year but after six months in charge he has now suffered the same fate as the German. football.london understands Julian Nagelsmann is the favourite to replace Potter at Stamford Bridge after he was sacked as manager at Bayern Munich, with former Blues boss Tuchel replacing him at the German outfit.

Bruno Saltor is set to take charge of the west Londoners as interim manager for their Premier League clash against Liverpool whilst Boehly and Co. continue their search for a new head coach. Despite looking for a new manager to replace Potter, the Blues' transfer business is showing no signs of slowing down after the club reached a 'full agreement' to sign Ecuadorian wonderkid Kendry Paez from Independiente del Valle.
