According to reports, the group led by Todd Boehle won the battle to become the next owner of Chelsea.
Boehly, who is also a co-owner of the Los Angeles Dodgers, is now fighting against alternative bids led by Sir Martin Bruton and Stephen Pagliuca.
According to the Daily Mail, Buhli is now the front-runner, buoyed by the fact that his fortune is considered “easier to access”.

Earlier this week, it was reported that Roman Abramovich had requested a £500m bid increase to facilitate the donation of more money to a charity he refers to as the “Victims of Ukraine”.
This position appears to favor Boehly’s plan if the claim that the money is more easily accessible is confirmed, however, it should be noted that Broughton and Pagliuca have not given up hope of owning the entire Premier League side.
The Raine Group, a US commercial bank, is likely to make a final decision in the coming days.
