Chelsea has not been allowed to sell tickets or run any other business since March 10, when the British government froze the assets of Russian oligarchs, including Abramovich, due to the invasion of Ukraine.
–
The club, headed by former national team goalkeeper Petr Čech, was allowed to operate only in a very limited regime so as not to jeopardize its participation in competitions.
–
The partial lifting of sanctions for Chelsea also means that it will be able to receive £ 30 million (about 889 million crowns) in operating costs from its parent company Fordstam.
–
Before the first sanctions were imposed, Abramovich announced that he wanted to sell the club and began looking for buyers. The 55-year-old Russian became the owner of Chelsea in 2003 and under his rule it had the most successful period in history.
–
Chelsea pod Abramovič won five titles, won the Champions League twice and won the English Cup five times. The Czech goalkeeper helped Chelsea to four league titles and one triumph in the Champions League.
