The British Government has updated the measures of the special license it granted to Chelsea after freezing all the assets of its owner, the Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich. One of the notable updates is that the club will be able to sell tickets.
Due to the sanctions of the United Kingdom against the Russian oligarchs with assets in the country, Chelsea was going to play its match against Real Madrid on April 6 in the quarterfinals of the Champions League behind closed doors. The decision not to be able to sell tickets was one of the most criticized by the fans who did not understand why they left harmed without seeing the team.
Now, the Executive of Boris Johnson has made a decision that prevents the game from being played without an audiencewhile neither the club nor its owners receive money beyond what is stipulated in the last resolution.
Ticket Sales
All proceeds from ticket sales will go to UEFA in the case of the Champions League (and then it will be distributed accordingly) and to the English Federation in the case of the FA Cup and Women’s Super League matches.
On the other hand, Chelsea will also be able to sell tickets for the matches in which he acts as a visitor and for the rival hobbies that visit their stadium. The proceeds will go to the Premier League. You will not be able to do it for the Premier matches at home to your fans who can only attend, as already announced, the club subscribers.
“The Government has today made changes to the license that was granted to Chelsea so that fans have access to the matchess from away from home, to those of the Cup and those of the women’s team. I would like to thank the fans for their patience,” said the British Sports Minister. For the time being, the chelsea sale is still active waiting for new buyers to meet.
