<p>Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich has officially been sanctioned by the UK government. As a result, Chelsea can&#39;t sell tickets for home and away games, nor can they sell merchandise. Furthermore, the club is not allowed to renew expiring contracts and they can&#39;t sell or buy players. Also, the club&#39;s shirt sponsor Three has suspended its working relationship with Chelsea. This is NOT good. This affects the club&#39;s players, employees, and fans more than Abramovich.</p><br/><br/>Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a><br/><br/>Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a> Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
