Chelsea striker Timo Werner reveals sanctions on Roman Abramovich have forced them into early check-outs for Champions League matches, NINE HOURS before kick-off, and using only one team coach to save cash

Chelsea star Timo Werner revealed how the Blues have been forced to forgo luxury on their travels following the sanctions placed on former club owner Roman Abramovich.

The Russian oligarch was sanctioned by the UK government due to his ties with president Vladimir Putin, amid the country's ongoing war with Ukraine.

The Blues stars are used to five-star comforts while travelling for away games or evening matches, including two luxury coaches and late check-outs but the club have had to give up their lifestyle in the wake of Abramovich's restrictions.
