These sales are dangerous precident. What stops another clubs owners transfering a clubs tangible assets for less than fair value I think Worcester Warriors owners did similar in Rugby with their stadium before they were wound up.

The Premier League need to come down hard on this or it will open Pandora's box
Trying to sell off the women’s team now too. No doubt trying another ffp dodge.
I heard a rumour that Boehly has put them all on the game to see how much dosh they can rustle up before the June deadline.
The word I used in response to this is removed when I post.
Doesn't the evidence point to the opposite and they are?
I'll read the article today, knowing Matt Law it is full of coulds and woulds.
Matt Law has been "briefed" by Chavs. Chelsea (I guess most clubs do this in their efforts to control the narratives - in Chelsea's case I would also say that this is them deliberately confusing/destabilising the noise around them, with all the shit they are trying to pull off it's to their advantage to have everyone guessing what they are doing - right down to putting their hard copy accounts in the mail rather than file electronically). I recall Twomey of the Athletic during the summer, he wrote at least 2 in-depth pieces (and was on podcasts and TV slots) about how Chelsea will comply with FFP/PSR, with no mention of selling a Hotel to themselves to achieve this (the ONLY reason they "might" have succeeded in becoming compliant), no, he was briefed by Chelsea to say that they would be compliant because they would reduce their wage bill!!! He went to great lengths to detail that new signings were on smaller wages and they had shifted out loads of big wages etc...The reality was Chav's wage bill actually increased by approx 25%!!! he was miles off it, because he was sucked into the briefing pumped out by the Club.
I think Matt Law has been around far longer than Twomey and knows full well that he would be foolish to print completely what Chavs want him to, so he covers his arse with "maybe, could and woulds".

Shouldn’t the narrative be that their £1.3billion squad is set to finish below the team that was predicted by many to be relegated without Harry Kane?
Why are Chelsea getting praised? And who said that Spurs were title challengers?
It's pure engagement bait, nothing more
It's absolutely outrageous to even suggest that that was some kind of narrative but it done It's job and everyone bit.
Sports media is absolutely on it's knees
Not being able to play the massively over-rated Enzo has helped them a lot. They have a far better balance in the team without him even if technically he's a better pure footballer than Gallagher.
I actually think they could be dangerous either next year or the one after that with a few good signings. Palmer and Nkunku are both capable of being elite level players. Gusto is quality, and they are now even getting a tune out of Cucurella on the other side. They seem to be forming the team spirit they were really lacking for half of the season.
More significantly they posted the 2nd highest wage bill in the PL of £404m, (only just behind City) but because their revenues have taken a massive hit (below us now) their wage to turnover is now an unsustainable 80%!!!!

Chelsea set to sign 17-year-old Estevao Willian from Palmeiras after agreeing an initial fee of 34m euros (£29m) for the forward.

Thiago Silva sends brutal parting message to Chelsea team-mates
The defender (pictured left) has had a far-from-ideal final season in west London, with Chelsea not competing in Europe for the first campaign since 2016-17, and failing to secure silverware.
Thiago Silva delivers brutal parting shot to Chelsea team-mates, warning 'egos' have got in the way of progress and claiming fans in Brazil would have thrown ROCKS at players for their 'unworthy' displays

Thiago Silva has left his soon-to-be former Chelsea team-mates a brutal parting message as he prepares to play his final match at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.
The Brazil international announced that he would be leaving the club at the end of the season last month in a tearful video message which demonstrated exactly how much the club has come to mean to Silva since his 2021 move.
The defender has had a far-from-ideal final season in west London, with Chelsea not competing in Europe for the first campaign since 2016-17, and failing to secure silverware.
While Mauricio Pochettino's players are hoping to end 2023-24 on a high note with a tilt at fifth place in the Premier League table, Silva feels that the team has fallen short of club expectations.
The 39-year-old therefore used his final interview to hand out curt advice to the side he is leaving behind.
It used to be the other way around - i.e. Spurs hiring ex-Chelski head-coaches. How the world has changed...
I hope Ipswich will charge them a huge ransom.
