Why West Ham celebrity James Corden was spotted with Todd Boehly ahead of Chelsea vs Wolves

Todd Boehly's takeover hasn't just only increased Chelsea awareness across the world and especially in the USA, but the celebrity world has latched onto the Hollywood factor upon this new dawn for the club.

Americanisation of the West London outfit was always going to attract more fans and supporters, but the celebrity pull of Stamford Bridge has also changed in recent weeks.

During the AC Milan win, the likes of British icon Naomi Campbell and American actor Ted Lasso were spotted taking in the action from the comfort of their executive suite.

Fast forward a few days, and this time around, in game week 9, a famous British comedian and TV presenter, James Corden, who is a confessed West Ham supporter, was present.

A picture which is doing the rounds on socials showcases the 'The late late show' host yawning as he was chatting to the other two friends that were present with him on this occasion.

football.london understands that Boehly and Corden are good friends, even so, that they have had dinner together in the summer. No wonder the part-LA Dodgers owner wanted to invite his good mate along to watch his side, despite his obvious West Ham roots.

In general, Boehly has been a very hands-on and busy man. From closing in on talks to appoint RB Leipzig's Christopher Vivell this week to attending training on Friday morning, it's clear that Roman Abramovich's successor is fully invested in this project he has going on.
