The Dodgers comparison comes up because Mark Walter is the majority owner of the Dodgers and Boehly is his day to day guy at Chelsea. Eghbali and Clearlake own 61% of the BlueCo shares. From the beginning of the partnership it was decided that Mark Walter and Boehly would set the club in motion for the first five years and then it would shift to Clearlake. Boehly came in and just blew through money with little to show may have changed the plan. They are still following the model that Guggenheim Sports and Mark Walter did at the Dodgers. It seems like the only one that got off script was Boehly and his massive purchases.
From their partnership plan in buying Chelsea
——————
The group has an agreement to rotate management every five years, so Boehly may not remain the club's main administrator after the 2026/27 season.
