Todd Boehly was pictured wearing full Chelsea gear as he enjoyed some drinks at Harry’s Bar in London.
The big-spending football owner donned a Chelsea coat and scarf with a blue hat at the exclusive Mayfair bar on Friday night.
Ironically, the private members’ club has strict policies when it comes to guests wearing ‘sportswear’, but it did not seem to be a problem for the American.
Boehly, who backed manager Graham Potter with around £323m in the January window, appeared to be in good spirits despite Chelsea’s obvious struggles since he took over from Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich.
It comes as reports in France claim that Boehly and his financial partners are interested in taking over Ligue 1 side Strasbourg.

Boehly and his financial partners are reportedly interested in a full takeover of French side Strasbourg
Boehly is understood to be interested in a 100 per cent takeover of the French side, according to L’Equipe.
The reports claim that Boehly and his partners spoke with Strasbourg president Marc Keller, and are ‘very interested’ in taking over the club.
The American’s time at Chelsea has not quite gone to plan so far, with Chelsea floundering in 10th despite heavily investing in the squad.
Boehly’s apperance at Harry’s Bar comes on the eve of Chelsea playing Tottenham on Sunday afternoon – a game which he and Potter could really do with the Blues winning.
The American owner seemed in good spirits despite Chelsea’s obvious struggles on the pitch
Chelsea – who were European champions in 2021 – have won just two of their past 14 games in all competitions, as Potter struggles to make his heavily invested side tick.
Potter retains the backing of the Chelsea chiefs but will be under huge pressure to win this crucial game to dispel rumours he could be axed.
The Blues – who were hoping to be title contenders at the start of the campaign – are coming off a shocking home defeat to bottom place Southampton – with midfielder James Ward-Prowse’s fine free-kick heaping more misery on the fans.
Boehly was also pictured with Potter during one of Chelsea’s training sessions in Cobham ahead of the Spurs clash.
