It has been anything but a quiet week for Chelsea after Roman Abramovich was officially sanctioned by the UK government for alleged connections to Vladimir Putin.
Abramovich has consistently denied the links but the government still moved to freeze the Russian oligarch's assets as a method of putting pressure on Putin.
It means that the club have been left in financial limbo, unable to trade in any respect. This means no tickets or merchandise can be sold while any contract or transfer negotiations also have been put on hold.
