The English Premier League has officially removed the Russian Roman Abramovich from the management of Chelsea.

"

The Board's decision does not affect the club's ability to train and play its matches under a license issued by the government.. The license expires on May 31, 2022,"

Roman Abramovich was sanctioned after Russia invaded Ukraine. The oligarch previously announced his desire to sell the club, but even now he will not be able to do this if he does not agree to give it away for free.
