Chelsea have confirmed that Bruce Buck will step down as chairman of the club from June 30th.
However, Buck, who has served as chairman since 2003, will continue to support the club as a Senior Advisor.
During his tenure with the club, the men’s team earned 18 major trophies (more than any other English club) while Chelsea Women won 12 major trophies.
“I am proud to have helped Chelsea realize great success on the pitch and make a positive impact in the community,” said Buck.
“Now is the right time to step down and let new ownership build on the strong foundations we have in place. The owners have a compelling vision for Chelsea’s future, and I look forward to helping them achieve it in this new role alongside our incredible staff, players, coaches and supporters.”
Meanwhile, Chelsea co-controlling owner Todd Boehly added: “Bruce has led Chelsea Football Club to the highest levels of international and domestic football, while also developing one of the most active social responsibility projects in sport.”
“We thank Bruce for his service and his commitment to the Club.”
Boehly has started making moves, and with big changes on the horizon.
