Chelsea has finally reached an agreement with a new director of football.

According to The Athletic, an agreement is now ‘in place’ that will see Stewart return to the Premier League after a short spell away.

He has previously worked with Everton, Manchester City and the FA, and is now being tasked with a significant role with the Blues.

Stewart has impressed over the past few years at Monaco, playing a significant role in a multi club model – just as Boehly would like to implement at his newly-acquired Chelsea.

Stewart will be working closely with Christopher Vivell, who is set to be announced as their technical director after he left his post at RB Leipzig.

The double arrival will be a major step in Boehly’s overhaul, along with Graham Potter in the dugout, and could mark an important point in the future of Chelsea.

Speaking last year about the multi-system at Monaco, which presumably caught the attention of Boehly, Stewart told Training Ground Guru: “When we came to Monaco last summer the club had had two disappointing seasons, with ninth and 17th place finishes, so there was a real desire to improve the performance of the team.

When we arrived we tried to understand the current processes, the ways of working and the individuals, and then went about formulating how that aligned with the way we wanted to work, where it differed and what steps we could take.
