The American businessman had tried buying Lyon, Sochaux and Bordeaux without success before settling for RC Strasbourg.
Boehly’s time in charge of Chelsea has been electric so far, with the American owner bringing in a raft of new players at great expense. Yet Boehly is now looking to branch out his soccer portfolio with a takeover bid for RC Strasbourg.
Strasbourg currently play in Ligue 1, although they are currently in a relegation battle after winning just two of their last 15 league games.
According to reports from L’Equipe, Boehly’s interest in the French club is legitimate and advanced.
