Petr Cech joins the Chelsea exodus under new owner Todd Boehly as the club’s legendary goalkeeper leaves his role as technical and performance advisor following last week’s departures of Bruce Buck and Marina Granovskaia
Petr Cech has left Chelsea, becoming the latest high profile figure to depart following Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital’s takeover.
The former goalkeeper – who has been their technical and performance advisor since 2019 – follows sporting director Marina Granovskaia and club chairman Bruce Buck in departing the west London side.
Cech said: ‘It has been a huge privilege to perform this role at Chelsea for the past three years. With the club under new ownership, I feel now is the right time for me to step aside.
