After the UK sanctioned Abramovich, Chelsea will no longer be able to do these 2 things

The UK Government has announced that they will be granting Chelsea a special license to still operate even though their assets have been frozen. But there are certain restrictions they will be facing

Here it is

1. They can no longer sell match tickets

Chelsea fans can no longer buy match tickets except those that already have season-long tickets.

2. They can no longer buy big players

The fact that they will no longer be selling tickets means they won’t be making frofits from ticket sales. Their assets is frozen so they won’t have enough money to buy big players anymore.

This is a sad thing for all Chelsea fans but the UK has no option than to do freeze Russian assets in their country. They want to do everything possible to put an end to the war.
