Reports have claimed that Chelsea owner Todd Boehly wanted to give a personal tour of behind the scenes at Stamford Bridge at half-time of a game earlier this season.

According to TalkSPORT, the American was stopped at the door of the dressing room while then manager Thomas Tuchel was addressing his players at the interval against West Ham.

Boehly has proven to be a divisive figure since taking over the reins from Roman Abramovich at the end of last season.

He made the controversial call to replace Tuchel as manager after just nine games of this campaign, although perhaps the more infuriating call for supporters was who he selected to replace him.

Graham Potter’s tenure at the club turned out to be a nightmare. Despite plenty of backing from the owner, he pulled the trigger when his side dropped into the bottom half of the table.

Now, there is a process ongoing over who will be the next candidate entrusted with leading the Blues into their new era.

Julian Nagelsmann is currently reportedly leading that race, however numerous candidates are still reportedly in the running.

Boehly recently captured the headlines after he spent over an hour in the dressing room laying into his players following the 2-1 home defeat to Brighton.

This reportedly left one player stunned, after he had been personally singled out for criticism following his big-money signing this year.

Now, it has emerged that he looked to pull off a similar stunt earlier in the campaign, although this time he attempted it in the middle of the game.

It was already known that Tuchel wasn’t the biggest fan of the American’s overbearing presence on the side, and it can’t have gone down well with Potter either.
