Roman Abramovich's problem are far from getting over. The Russian Billionaire who a week before wanted to sell Chelsea has been disqualified as the director of Club after the Boris Johnson-led UK government issued a sanction in his name, the Premier League Board informed. 

The Premier League club is under restrictions after the sanction. The top-flight club has only been allowed to play matches and pay salaries, apart from that any income-related activity that might benefit Abramovich's purse has been banned.
