Chelsea's bank account 'has been temporarily suspended' following Abramovich being sanctioned

Chelsea's bank account with Barclays has reportedly been suspended after owner Roman Abramovich was sanctioned.

Sky Sports claim the bank has taken the action because it needs time to evaluate the licence handed to the club by the UK government to continue football-related activities in the wake of the Russian billionaire being sanctioned.

The report claims the Blues remain hopeful Barclays will soon lift their suspension of their account.
