Boehly is both a director and investor in Vivid and also holds a 13 per cent stake in Chelsea.

Vivid is described as  an "unauthorised ticket seller" by the Premier League. Vivid's website has listed Chelsea home games, with some tickets selling for £20,000.

Chelsea Supporters' Trust have requested the Premier League investigate the situation.

Premier League CEO Richard Masters has confirmed talks with Chelsea, which he describes as "ongoing" at a Football Supporters' Association event last week.
