Chelsea FC owner Roman Abramovich has been sanctioned by the UK government as part of its response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine. He is one of seven oligarchs to be hit with fresh sanctions, including asset freezes and travel bans.

The list also includes billionaires Igor Sechin and Oleg Deripaska, both seen as allies of Vladimir Putin.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson said "there can be no safe havens" for
those who have ed the invasion.
"Today's sanctions are the latest step in the UK's unwavering for the Ukrainian people. We will be ruthless in pursuing those who enable the killing of civilians, destruction of hospitals and illegal occupation of sovereign allies," Mr Johnson said.


The government had come under pressure to sanction Mr Abramovich, who said he had made the "difficult decision" to sell Chelsea FC earlier this month. Chelsea FC has been seized from Mr Abramovich as part of the freeze on his assets and the sale of the club is now on hold.
The government says it will issued a special licence that will allow
fixtures to be fulfilled, staff to be paid and existing ticket holders to
attend matches.
Season ticket holders can still attend games they have tickets for but
club can not now sell any more tickets that haven't been sold already.
The merchandise shop will be closed.
Abramovich, 55, is alleged to have strong ties to Russian President
Vladimir Putin, which he has denied.
The government says Mr Abramovich, who has an estimated net
worth of £9.4bn, is "one of the few oligarchs from the 1990s to
maintain prominence under Putin".
Mr Abramovich has stakes in steel giant Evraz, Norilsk Nickel and sold
a 73% stake in Russian oil firm Sibneft to state-owned gas titan
Gazprom for £9.87bn in 2005.
While the sanctions against him throw Chelsea FC's future in doubt,
ministers sought to reassure the club it would not be "unnecessarily
harmed".
In a tweet, Culture Secretary Nadine Dorries said holding those who
have "enabled the Putin regime to " was the priority.
"I know this brings some uncertainty, but the government will work
with the league and clubs to keep football being played while ensuring
sanctions hit those intended," she wrote.

ancestors as slave and steal your resources, it’s the same
westerners and the US whom y’all drumming for, despite
their atrocities committed against mankind right from the
beginning of our existence, countless times the west and US has
invaded countries like Libya, Yemen, Cuba Afghanistan Iraq Etc
yet nobody have thought about it but y’all criticizing Russia for
invading Ukraine, please emancipate yourselves from mental
slavery and media propaganda of the westerners they’ve been
lying to you and messing with your brain with media propaganda.

They should go for Putin, just like that? And how exactly? These are the ways they can get Putin to calm down.

The Oligarchs are very close and dear to him. Once they begin to be uncomfortable, Putin will also feel discomfort.

An individual who happens to be an oligarch. If yachts and homes owned by oligarchs are being seized then a football club is fair game.

The team won’t be affected by the shift in ownership.

Let me this news.

Only when it suits them, imagine seizing someone's business because the president of his country started a war?

Oh my dear Chelsea. Please leave us alone. Please please please.

Putin this madness has got to stop now,Cfc as a club deserves better than this.......

This is an unnecessary sanction

My opinion

When the sanction is lifted, will Abramovic still want to sell? Cause am interested in buying o

Its for his good. When Putin get sense, it will be released and his Assets will be released and no pressure will be on him to sell Chelsea anymore. The goal is not to witch hunt him but to restrict any means through which Putin can get his hands on Dollar or Euro. He must eat his Rubles.

Buy and be happy

Since the war started the only song that comes to my mind is Ameno Amapiano remix (Dey run kiti kiti dey run kata kata). Those people that want to chill with the big boys including Ukraine and Russia. Especially Ukraine that wants to cult (NATO)

The funniest thing is Russia will not still back down. Who gave USA World Power ? They found Earth ? I back Russia with full force.

A lot of things have not been put to check since the beginning of civilization. Common, We are all humans, no one should be greater than one. USA knows how to intimidate people ehn, I’m pretty sure they’re the Romans of those days.

If you all know the History of money, you all won’t be here typing, rather will be somewhere fighting endlessly cos money itself is fraud. They created money to enslave majority.

Most networks in Nigeria allocate Megabytes for YouTube to be used by Midnight anytime you subscribe for a monthly plan. Search and watch the history of money and you see it doesn’t make any sense but to enslave. They intentionally linked everything to money in order for it to be hard for majority to be set free. But By God’s Grace, We Shall Be Out And Set Free. So Be It.

Don’t forget that USA and UK are birds of the same feathers.

Making some humans as kings and some as slaves. Is that how it is supposed to be ?

No one owns natural resources and it should be shared evenly and equally among every citizens of planet Earth, be it born or yet to be.

Do Not Forget To Work Towards Your Goals.

May God Hear Our Positive Prayers. So Be It.

Lol this is not funny anymore

What?

We LL survive....all their plans to secure top4 for Man U will not materialize

Good all those close to the mad man Putin will feel the heat.... More wins to the British government

This is pure jealousy and this is what Putin is fighting for , how can a few nation try to control the entire world,they go to other countries and even kill their leaders

Very unfair sanction. How can UK govt sanction Chelsea fc from selling match day tickets, player transfers sale and club merchandise at Chelsea stores. Did they want to ruin Chelsea fc?

How will the club generate revenue now? UK govt has always been thief.

These are really interesting times, opportunity to learn more about world politics.
It means no matter your disagreement with your home country, all it takes is for one foreign policy to remind you that your host nation is not your home country.
