The sanctions placed on Chelsea owner, Roman Abramovich means that activities at the London club will reduce to a very small percentage of what it used to be in terms of day-to-day management and revenue generation.
To start with, since Abramovich can no longer make money in the United Kingdom due to the ban, it means he can no longer sell the club like he had wanted to.
The UK government sees Chelsea as a significant cultural asset and has handed the club a special licence – which would be kept under constant review, that allows them to continue operating despite the sanctions placed on the owner.
As it stands, as long as sanctions on Abramovich remains, Chelsea would no longer be able to sign new players into the club
