Hyundai are the latest sponsors of Chelsea to say they are assessing their position with the club following sanctions placed upon Roman Abramovich on Thursday morning.
The 55-year-old Russian was added to the UK government's sanction list and saw his assets frozen but the Blues remain able to operate under a 'Russian Regulation' licence that sees a number of restrictions placed upon the club. One of which means the club can't use any income from sponsorship deals when it is a frozen asset.
The South Korean automotive manufacturer have been Chelsea's shirt sleeve sponsor since 2018 when they announced a four-year deal suspected to be worth in the region of £10million each season. Their deal as a result is set to expire this year, but the company will assess their situation following the sanctions.
