March 2025

Chelsea supporters have called on the Premier League to investigate Todd Boehly’s connection to Vivid Seats, a resale platform known for listing tickets far above face value.
Boehly sits on Vivid Seats’ board, a site labeled by the league as “unauthorized.” The Chelsea Supporters Trust claims this is a “clear conflict of interest” and undermines anti-scalping efforts. They urge Premier League CEO Richard Masters to step in. Tickets on Vivid for Chelsea matches have soared to £3,000+, compared to the official £80 club price. The Premier League and Chelsea both warn fans that such ticket resales violate policies and could result in match entry being denied.
