What Is Todd Boehly's Net Worth In 2022?

The Premier League has approved a £4.25 billion takeover of Chelsea by a consortium which American businessman Todd Boehly is leading.

On 16th May a government insider said the deal was ‘close to collapse’, however Boehly’s consortium has seemingly overcome any difficulties and has now satisfied the Premier League’s owners and directors tests. 

The consortium will succeed Roman Abramovich, who was forced to sell the club after his links with Vladimir Putin led to the Russian businessman being sanctioned by the British government.  

Boehly’s consortium is backed by a number of financial ‘heavy hitters’. These include Swiss billionaire Hansjoerg Wyss, the founder and former chairman of Synthes Holding AG, and US billionaire Mark Walter, CEO of Guggenheim Partners, a financial services firm which manages more than $310 billion assets.

Californian Private Equity firm Clearlake Capital is also an integral part of the consortium and will own a majority of shares in the club. 

Boehly is fast becoming a big name in the world of football executives and, with eye-watering sums of money being invested in the Chelsea takeover, many are wondering… how much is Boehly worth?
