Walter and Boehly to Sell Chelsea Stakes to Clearlake Capital, CNBC Reports
The move comes as two insurance companies linked to co-owner Mark Walter face federal scrutiny over billions of dollars in transactions, according to CNBC.
Mark Walter and Todd Boehly are selling their stakes in Chelsea Football Club to Clearlake Capital, according to a report by CNBC.
