Chelsea handed two-window transfer ban
An independent committee imposed a fine of $13.4 million on the English club Chelsea and banned it from registering players during two transfer windows with a suspended sanction, due to violations of the local football association's regulations. The club admitted to committing 74 violations related to player agents, dealings with intermediaries, and third-party investments. Before the penalty, there was a plan to deduct six points with a suspended status, but the penalty was changed to a registration ban with a suspended status after an appeal hearing. These violations were committed by the club's new owners during the takeover process in 2022 from billionaire Roman Abramovich. The club confirmed its commitment to compliance with the rules following the revelation of these violations.
