Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel is said to be enjoying working with the Blues, amid reported interest from Manchester United for their vacant managerial position. It comes as the club was thrown into a period of uncertainty a few weeks ago, due to sanctions placed on owner Roman Abramovich.
The UK Government placed a freeze on the 55-year-old ’s UK assets, including the football club, as they described him as a “Pro-Kremlin oligarch” with ties to Russian President Vladimir Putin. Roman Abramovich has always denied having links with Vladimir Putin.
As a result, Chelsea are having to operate under a special sporting licence, meaning they are only able to work within footballing means. Things such as tickets and merchandise can no longer be sold by the club, so for the time being only season ticket holders can attend home games from Brentford onwards, unless the situation changes once again.
