Chelsea lives times of changes after the landing of Todd Boehly as the new owner of the English club. The businessman, who took the reins of the institution in June, has already taken his first weight by firing Thomas Tuchel, who knew how to win the Champions League, the Club World Cup and the European Super Cup with the Blues, to bet on Graham Potter, performing well at Brighton & Hove Albion.
But his idea of renewing the sports policy of the London team goes much further and according to reports The Parisian anhela to hire Louis Fields to be the main sporting head of Chelsea. The Portuguese, 58 years old, received a succulent offer of 8 million euros per year to immediately leave his duties at Paris Saint Germain and take charge of the next two transfer windows (January and next European summer).
The Portuguese, who previously knew how to be a strategic advisor to Celta from Spain and Galatasaray from Turkey and an important head in the structure of Lille and Monaco, took the reins of PSG a few months ago and carried out an important renovation in the capital as a whole. He incorporated players like Vitinha, Fabián Ruiz, Carlos Soler, Renato Sanches, Nordi Mukiele and Hugo Ekitiké and dispensed with Arnaud Kalimiendo, Thilo Kehrer, Alponse Areola, Idrissa Gueye, Julian Draxler, Abdou Diallo, Ángel Di María, Rafinha, Mauro Icardi, Georginio Wijnaldum and Leandro Paredes, among others. In addition, he was important to achieve the renewal of Kylian Mbappé.
The newspaper assures that Chelsea seeks to seduce him with an impressive sum of money so that he can invest within the next transfer window: €300 million. The Blues, after six games in the Premier League, appear in sixth place with 10 points, five less than the leader Arsenal. They also started their way in the Champions League with a loss as a visitor against Dinamo Zagreb in Croatia (this afternoon they will host Salzburg from Austria).
This same medium also warns that if the British billionaire Jim Ratcliffe (general director of Ineos and current owner of OGC Nice) finally convinces the Glazer family to sell his shares in Manchester United (its price is around 4,000 million euros) he will also go in search of Luis Campos to be the new sports director of the Red Devils.
