Forde leaves Blues for a new field of dreams

Mike Forde knows plenty about summer transfers. Over the last 15 years, he’s recruited some of the world’s greatest footballers to the Premier League.

But this time, he’s the one making the switch.

After leaving Chelsea last year, his consultancy work began to heavily permeate the US market and various NFL and NBA franchises became clients. Over the last few weeks, he’s relocated full-time to New York and set up Ingenio Management, a business that sees him advise various owners, presidents and general managers from major sports organisations on how to reshape their business strategies.
