Todd Boehly and Behdad Eghbali will be happy with how things are going at both Chelsea and Strasbourg.
Boehly and Eghbali own Chelsea and Strasbourg through their company BlueCo and have watched the two clubs enjoy success since buying them.
The former won two trophies and qualified for the Champions League last season, while the latter are in the Conference League and fighting for a European spot in Ligue 1 once again.
Can Chelsea win the Premier League title this season?
However, BlueCo’s project could soon be impacted by one of Chelsea’s Premier League rivals.

Losing Liam Rosenior to Fulham could impact the development of Chelsea loanees
According to talkSPORT, Strasbourg face a battle to keep hold of manager Liam Rosenior, with Fulham keen on the 41-year-old.
Losing Rosenior would be a blow not only for Fulham, but also for Chelsea. Rosenior has done a great job developing the players the Blues have sent to Strasbourg on loan.
Andrey Santos is probably the outstanding example. He worked under the Englishman last season, progressing into a very capable midfielder thanks to his coaching.
Which Chelsea loanee at Strasbourg has the most potential? ⭐️
Emanuel Emegha’s emergence has also occurred under Rosenior, and the striker is now set to join Chelsea. He is ready to play in the Premier League after being developed by his manager.
All in all, Rosenior has done a lot for Chelsea without having even worked there. BlueCo could find it hard to replace him.
In recent days, Chelsea have been linked with Joaquin Panichelli, another Strasbourg star doing well under Rosenior.
Liam Rosenior could become Chelsea manager one day
Rosenior now has a rapport with the Chelsea owners and sporting directors after managing Strasbourg.
He also would have earned their trust after developing the players Chelsea have sent there on loan. Ultimately, when it is time for the Club World Cup winners to hire a new manager, do not be surprised if they turn to Rosenior.
For now, despite this recent dip in form, everyone at the club should be happy with Enzo Maresca and the job that he has done at Stamford Bridge.
