Chelsea have given an indication of Neil Bath’s growing influence by putting their director of football development and operations in charge of the redevelopment of their training ground.
Bath, widely credited with building one of the best youth set-ups in English football, has been handed greater power under the Todd Boehly-Clearlake Capital ownership. Having been academy director since 2004, he earned a promotion last year and is focused on overseeing improvements to Chelsea’s Cobham training site.
