Allianz seriously considering major and long term partnership with Chelsea

https://www.Chelsea-news.co/2023/06/mail-allianz-seriously-considering-major-and-long-term-partnership-with-Chelsea/

Chelsea and Allianz is a partnership that could be back on the cards once again.

Chelsea are yet to confirm their new main shirt sponsors for next season and they need to do that ASAP for the new kit launch and with pre-season fast approaching. But nothing has been confirmed yet after backlash from fans when reports came out they might use gambling company, Stake.

But before those rumours there was links with Allianz, but that deal looked to have broken down and soon faded out.

However, The Daily Mail have ran a story over the weekend suggesting that Allianz and Chelsea are seriously considering a long term partnership starting up.

They say Allianz are interested in a long-term sponsorship deal to bring Chelsea’s new ground, wherever it materialises, into their ‘family of stadiums’.

Whilst they say that Stake are still expected to be Chelsea’s shirt sponsors, Allianz have sounded Chelsea out about a potential stadium naming deal.

Notable gaps in the ‘family’ include England and Spain. The ‘Allianz Bridge’ would fill one.

Welcome to Allianz Bridge 😂

[Vegetable 830]

I do not fancy playing on "Allianz Bridge" as much as I do not fancy online gambling as a shirt sponsor…

Leaked Sponsorship photo. It is easy to see taken in the last two days.

I created a thread for the first team players for the Chelsea Women’s Team. In doing so I got a tweet about every player. After reading several tweets about each player it became very clear that the new owners have really gone out and got the best players they could for Hayes. Something was very clear, the owners expect that the women are treated as equals to the men in their facilities and training. It was rather refreshing to see that they put such a strong emphasis on the club as a whole, not just the men’s team. This tweet from Fran Kirby says a lot of their commitment.

Expect us to get relegated while City will be fined with 10,99 pounds with their 115 charges.

We will be fine. As will City.

I cannot see the PL doing anything brutal to the two most successful PL clubs in the last 15-20 years. It will be fines and thats it. As usual. They won’t make an example of any of the two clubs. No titles stripped, no point deductions, you know, the usual bullshit people want to happen but then would say that would be unfair they did it to us 😂

This discussion was going on when they were on about City fiddling their books etc, it’s all just going to end up going to CAS and then will be 4-6 years of the usual bullshit in the court “their word against our word” and it’ll be reduced down to a slap on the wrists and a fine to bring it to an end.

I mean a lot of these clubs, us included, really don't have a leg to stand on about anything morally to do with the sport, particularly after the European Super League fiasco.

We reported the finances to the PL first thing Todd when he took over

[Vesper 30,072]

Ares Management, who are going to invest over a billion quid in us, are big boys.

around 341 billion USD (and very likely more as that figure is from September 30, 2022, the end of the last fiscal year) in assets under management

https://www.aresmgmt.com/

all combined, the ownership side will now have what is closing in on half a TRILLION USD in AUM

that is crazy money

Cannot go to CAS for PL rule breaches. It is mandated in the PL's rules that all the clubs signed up to. 

That said, I am not worried about this. I suspect it is similar to the UEFA issue in that we raised it with them. I suspect a heavy fine but no more than that. City are in a lot more trouble with the lack of CAS to bail them out.

Yeah City can't appeal and the statute of limitations doesn't apply for the PL.

There are growing whispers of other clubs complaining to the Premier League about Chelsea’s spending. (@liam_twomey @SJohnsonSport) #CFC

🚨 FFP : Chelsea’s estimated amortised spending in the past three windows under Boehly and Clearlake, using initial transfer figures reported by The Athletic, comes to £157.2 million - this significantly lower number is almost entirely offset by an accounting profit from player sales of £149.6 million over the same period! (@TheAthleticFC) #CFC

[Gundalf 805]

If clubs really complain about us, they just admit that they dont know their business as well as Boehly.
