New Power! Chelsea Official: Women s Football Team has a minority shareholder joining, with shares worth 20 million pounds

05 May 16th Chelsea Women's Football Team proudly announced that technology entrepreneur and founder of 76 Capital Alexis Ohanian joined the club as a minority shareholder. According to reporter Ben Jacobs, Ohanian has purchased an 8% stake, worth about £20 million. The club ownership group remains the controlling shareholder of Chelsea Women's Football Team, and Ohanian will join as a minority shareholder, with BDTMSD Partners serving as the club's financial advisor.

With two championships this season, Ohanian's investment is an endorsement of change for Chelsea women's football, as well as for women's football in Europe and even around the world. This marks a new era in women's football and confirms the huge potential of Chelsea women's football team to develop both inside and outside the court.

Last year, Chelsea women's football team adjusted its positioning in the club, aiming to create opportunities for investments specifically supporting women's football. Ohanian's investment further verifies the correctness of this strategy, while providing additional resources and funding to drive Chelsea to maintain its global leadership.

This investment will enable the club to continue to invest in:

upgrade facilities for players and fans

business resources to promote the development of global women's football

world-class first-team and youth training academy construction
