The impact of sanctions put on Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich have been felt in the dressing room.

If a takeover stalls, players may start to act on that advice including the potential cancellations of contracts as a last resort. We allowed ourselves to focus on the football." A number of Chelsea players have reportedly discussed exit strategies with lawyers, including the potential cancelling of contracts, as the impact of Roman Abramovich's sanctions continue to be felt.

It is understood the bank needs time to assess the licence which Chelsea have been given to continue football-related activities. But Chelsea, who play ...

Sometimes it makes things more difficult, but sometimes more easy to accept we cannot do anything in the moment, to wait and to constantly adapt." "To understand the situation feels very difficult, to see where it is going is maybe impossible. But Chelsea, who play Newcastle in a home game on Sunday, are hopeful the suspension will be lifted shortly.

Chelsea fans have been asked to refrain from chanting in support of their owner and Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich by a UK Government minister.

"I am still happy to be here and still happy to be manager of a strong team. "Clearly this is a time of great uncertainty for all Chelsea fans. "The club’s put a statement out. I know there is a lot of noise around." But the club's future is now uncertain. Chelsea will continue negotiating with the Government over alterations to the current trading licence to allow the Blues to operate as close to normal as possible. In our view, no one is the owner of a football club – you are the custodian of it for the fans and the community." Abramovich also vowed to write off the £1.5billion in loans he has made to Chelsea, and has been determined to see the club taken on by an owner with similarly lofty ambitions for the European and world champions. Abramovich bought Chelsea in 2003 and has led the club to 21 trophies in the 19 years since. The existing licence for the club does not permit a sale, but the UK Government has said it is open to a sale and would consider an application for a new licence to make the transaction possible. The licence can be varied or revoked at any time, and the club said on Thursday it would seek to amend the licence to allow them to operate as close to normal as possible. "And I say that as a football fan myself, and I would just ask them to keep that in mind."

The club could face administration unless the transfer embargo placed on them is lifted at the end of May, a football finance expert has said.

You’d have to pick them up cheaply and look to then sell them on in the future. “The sanctions push (the value of the club) down. “That’s what the Americans are really good at – revenue generation. “I actually don’t buy the idea that an American owner will be too interested in them. “We recognise that this decision will impact the many Chelsea fans who follow their team passionately. “That’s where it probably goes.

Proposals to be considered as long as Russian oligarch would not benefit from the deal.

The club has been granted a special licence to allow it continue to play matches for the rest of the season but only season ticket holders and fans who have already bought tickets will be able to attend matches. Chelsea’s training kit sponsor, Trivago, said it would continue to support the club: “The uncertainty over the current ownership situation of Chelsea FC has been challenging. Hyundai, its shirt sleeve sponsor with a deal worth a reported £10m, said it was “assessing the situation with Chelsea FC”. It has been suggested that the proceed of the sale would be frozen or placed into a charitable fund. Club executives met UK government officials on Thursday and are expected to continue talks in the coming days. “We are examining the details of yesterday’s announcement and we are still interested in making a bid,” his spokesperson said.
