Chelsea became used to success on the pitch during the reign of former owner Roman Abramovich.
However, since the takeover by BlueCo in 2022 the club has failed to perform to the standards set despite huge spending on transfers.
Leboeuf, 56, has sent an eerie warning to supporters that things may not improve any time soon.
He told : "Some fans think Chelsea can just start from scratch next season, but it won’t really be starting from scratch after spending a billion pounds.

"The club can do whatever they want with their money but as a former player, I think it’s kind of a disgrace to see what we are seeing.
"The talent is there in the squad but you don’t have many leaders or players you can rely on, that’s the biggest problem Enzo Maresca has.
"It’s possible that Chelsea can win a cup, like the FA Cup this season potentially, but never the Premier League. No way.
"If they keep going the way they’re going then they will never win a Premier League title again, they need experience. It just won’t work.
