People may have different views on this and I understand all angles but personally for me I can only see it as a good thing that the new owners of Chelsea are looking for new clubs to buy as well as Chelsea.
Chelsea are in talks to buy Portuguese high-flying Portimonense as part of plans to build a global multi-club project.

We have seen how well this setup works with groups like Red Bull which has Salzburg and Leipzig and of course the Manchester City group which owns several clubs.
With Red Bull we are already seeing the benefits of that with just one example, which is striker Benjamin Sesko moving from Salzburg to Leipzig in the upcoming summer transfer window, with a deal already agreed. Sesko will be another great talent that the group will benefit from.
At Chelsea, it would give us the opportunity to loan players to these additional clubs that the owners have signed, and make sure they get vital development minutes and just go to these clubs to develop and then come back as a complete player. . Todd Boehly has even talked about this and how important it is for your loan players to play games.
More news has surfaced today about Chelsea trying to buy clubs across Europe, with Portugal appearing to be a priority point of call for Blues owners. I can only see this as a good thing for the future of our football club and I am excited to see how this develops.
