Chelsea’s bank account, whose financial activities were suspended, was also frozen, following the UK’s decision to sanction Abramovich.
The bank account of Chelsea, one of the English Premier League teams owned by Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich, has been temporarily frozen by Barclays.
In the news in the British press, it was stated that the bank account of Chelsea, whose financial activities, including player transfer and ticket sales, were suspended, was temporarily suspended with the sanctions decision of England after Russia’s military action in Ukraine.
