Just as Chelsea FC is getting ready to become part of DraftKings' empire, it's also taking a chance on a cryptocurrency sponsor. Chelsea CF is following.

It had intended on becoming an official partner of the Argentine Football Association and the Argentine national team, but the agreement broke when conflicts with rival partners came up. Raine Group is also the organization that negotiated Binance’s $200 million investment in Forbes magazine in February 2022. This sponsorship aligns us with one of the most advanced digital asset companies in the world. The sponsorship is Chelsea’s first entry into the field of cryptocurrencies, with WhaleFin replacing Hyundai on the team’s shirt sleeve. Although Binance decided against the purchase, it has consistently promoted promotional activity across the sports ecosystem. At the same time, Chelsea lost its sponsorship agreement with Chinese telecommunications company Three.

Most wins, goals and finals: Chelsea's 25 years of FA Cup success ... (Chelsea FC)

Since winning the FA Cup in 1997 and ushering in the trophy-laden modern era of Chelsea Football Club, no team has reached the final of the competition more ...

Our fourth FA Cup triumph in just six years would prove the last for that great Chelsea generation of Cech, Cole, Terry, Lampard, Drogba et al. Kenny Daglish responded by introducing Andy Carroll off the bench, and it helped change the balance of the contest. Both teams endured underwhelming league campaigns in 2011/12. Chelsea finished in sixth, and Liverpool eighth, with the cups offering respite. We will be hoping our next step on the five-year final cycle serves as a rerun of not only that epic comeback, but also the 2012 final, a decade ago now. In retrospect, it marked a sea-change in the Blues’ fortunes. Nothing but success, particularly in the FA Cup.

"If you look at the quality with Jorgi and him in central midfield, even when we played eleven against eleven, it was a very strong start.

It is imperative the quality of ball in is right and there is a plan in place to keep the cross away from Van Dijk and Konate, if they are both playing. That final at Wembley was amongst the most compelling I have been to in many years, and I expect this to be of the same high calibre. All this will be needed against a City side who have forgotten their traumatic start to the season. Their sitting midfielders, the best at it being Jordan Henderson, do try to cover, but if Havertz, Timo Werner, Mason Mount or Christian Pulisic get a head start, they are hard to catch. Like Manchester City, they not only attack with quality from a variety of areas, but they have been fabulously mean at the back. Their constant belief in defending zonally at corners, and to some extent wide free-kicks, gives you an opportunity to get a run on their defenders.

Thomas Tuchel is set to strengthen his squad this summer when the club are given the green light to make any new signings.

Chelsea have managed to win just two of their last seven matches. He developed further after moving to PSV in September 2020, with his consistency and his passing range, particularly under pressure. Southampton believe they have the edge, having used their relationship with Chelsea to sign the likes of Ryan Bertrand and Tina Livramento in the past.
