More infoChelsea have been banned from selling tickets to fans who aren't season ticket holders and blocked from selling merchandise after owner Roman Abramovich was sanctioned by the UK Government on Thursday morning. News emerged last week that Abramovich had listed the club for sale following Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Chelsea have been one of the most successful clubs in England under Abramovich since he bought them in 2003. And one of those sanctions means that Chelsea are not even allowed to sell tickets - with only existing season ticket holders being able to attend fixtures. And the sanctioning of the club means they have been left in limbo.
