According to Standard Sport journalist Nizaar Kinsella, the new owner of the Blues, Todd Boehly, paid $26.3 million for the early termination of Potter's contract with the Seagulls, which was scheduled to run until 2025. This amount was the largest in the history of football, which was paid for the transition of a coach.

However, the new Chelsea coach is not without problems implementing his style of football amid unprecedented changes at the club. Potter was also hampered by constant problems with injuries to key players.
