Chelsea’s ownership has declared that the club is entering a new chapter, with winning major trophies and building sustained success identified as key priorities.

In a statement released after an important milestone for the club, Chelsea’s ownership thanked its departing partners for their contributions while insisting that the club is moving forward with “a shared sense of purpose, clear direction and confidence” in its future.

“Our ambition is clear: to compete at the highest level, to win major trophies, and to build sustained success,” the ownership said.

The owners also placed Chelsea supporters at the centre of the club’s future, acknowledging their role as the “true custodians” of the club for more than 120 years.

“While we have the responsibility of ownership, this will always be your Club,” the statement added.

The ownership pledged to listen to supporters while working to build a Chelsea that fans can be proud of both on and off the pitch.

According to the statement, success on the field will remain the club’s “priority”, with the owners targeting competition for the Premier League and other major trophies.

Chelsea also plans to strengthen its commercial operations to provide the financial capacity to invest consistently in the playing squad.

Beyond the first team, the ownership said it would continue to focus on the club’s long-term infrastructure, with plans to make careful investments and pursue solutions designed to benefit future generations.

“We are ambitious about what Chelsea can achieve, and equally conscious of the responsibility that comes with leading this great Club,” the statement said.

The ownership added that it would continue working to move Chelsea forward “together”, signalling a renewed focus on sporting success, commercial growth, infrastructure and engagement with supporters.

The statement comes as Chelsea continues to navigate a period of significant change, with the club seeking to establish a clear long-term direction while maintaining its ambitions at the highest level of English and European football.
