Among the main targets are Matthijs de Ligt, Jules Kounde and Raheem Sterling, with Jonathan Clauss, Ousmane Dembele, Richarlison and Gabriel Jesus also mooted.
The report details that Tuchel has held transfer summits with the new owner as the Blues target success in the 2022-23 campaign.
A source told The Telegraph: 'The key is to basically work with Tuchel to come up with the best players that are available. We really want to make sure we have a good defence.
'We've got depth in midfield. We're not desperate for an out-and-out striker.
Reports from Italy state that Juventus centre back De Ligt will not sign a new contract at the club, with the Blues interested in a big-money move for the Dutchman.
Sevilla defender Kounde has been a long-term target of Chelsea's and could move to west London, while France international Clauss - currently at Lens - is an option at right back.
Further up the pitch, Sterling's future at Manchester City is currently not clear - with Chelsea at the front of the pack of teams interested - while Everton forward Richarlison has been linked with a move away from Goodison Park.
Barcelona's Dembele - who Tuchel worked with at Borussia Dortmund - is reportedly considering his options too, while Jesus could depart from Manchester City in light of Erling Haaland's transfer to the Premier League champions.
Meanwhile, Boehly has installed himself as the club's interim sporting director after they confirmed the departure of Marina Granovskaia.
