Chelsea's owners have reportedly raised around £800m in debt to help finance changes to the club and playing squad under the new regime.
Todd Boehly led a consortium that bought the club from Roman Abramovich in May, and the Blues have already been making waves in the transfer market.
Raheem Sterling was the first signing of the new era, the England international joining from Manchester City in a deal worth £50m, while defender Kalidou Koulibaly has also joined from Serie A side Napoli.
However, there is also a desire to make changes off the pitch, with the redevelopment of Stamford Bridge among plans held by Boehly and the board.
According to the Financial Times, the American financier and Clearlake Capital have now raised £800m, which will go towards the playing squad, stadium and academy set up.
Of the funds raised, £300m is part of a revolving credit facility, while the other £500m comes from a term loan.
On taking control at Stamford Bridge, Boehly and Clearlake vowed to invest a further £1.75bn into Chelsea, having bought the club from Abramovich for £2.5bn.
On the pitch, Thomas Tuchel's side are in the midst of a tour of the US. Their latest outing ended in a surprise defeat on penalties by Charlotte FC.
Chelsea appear close to adding their third signing since the takeover, with the Blues having made an improved £55m offer for France defender Jules Kounde.
The Sevilla centre back has already agreed personal terms.

Fellow Chelsea fans, do you agree with me that we need Cr7 now??? It's funny how we seriously lack a goal scorer when world's highest goal scorer is out there looking for a club. This is simply because most people don't think independently, they just follow the crowd. The media has always tried to pull Cr7 down right from when he was at his best! Sadly that has gotten into the head of the crowd. Man U we're a disaster last season, yet Cr7 made the EPL team of the season- thanks to his goals. But guess what??? The media has made it look like Cr7 is the reason United conceded all the goals they conceded. I don't know if the guy should be a striker and at the same time, defend. Chelsea has one of the best midfield and defense, the only thing they lack is a proper 9! Tuchel please go get this guy now!
