Roman Abramovich ‘no longer paying for staff loo-roll’ as sanctions hit Chelsea hard

Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich has reportedly been hit so hard by UK Government sanctions that his staff have been forced to buy their own toilet roll, as well as a number of other necessities.

The Russian oligarch was hit with severe sanctions by the UK Government earlier this year following his country’s invasion of Ukraine - a conflict that continues to this day. The sanctions followed Abramovich’s decision to sell Chelsea having been the majority shareholder at Stamford Bridge since 2003.
