Sports Minister Nigel Huddleston maintains sanctions on Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich must mean that it cannot be 'business as usual' at Stamford Bridge.
The club was put up for sale by billionaire Abramovich at the start of March in the wake of Russia's invasion of the Ukraine.
However, Abramovich was subsequently sanctioned by the Government over his ties to Russian president Vladimir Putin, with his assets frozen.
Chelsea have been able to continue to operate, but under strict conditions, one of which means the club are not permitted to sell any new tickets to supporters for home Premier League matches.
