Chelsea Roman Abramovich Ban UK — Roman Abramovich

As ongoing tensions continue to rise, the current owner of Chelsea, Roman Abramovich, has been barred by the UK government from living in Britain.

The Russian billionaire has reportedly been under scrutiny by the British government after allegedly being named one of the 35 Oligarchs by the Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny that has enabled the Putin-led administration in Russia.

Roman has not been able to renew his investor visa since 2018 after speculated delays in the process due to the criticisms of Russian Oligarchs that trailed the case of the Salisbury poisonings.

Although some members of the parliament are calling for his club ownership to be revoked and his 152 million pounds mansion be seized in London, there has not been an official vote in regards to him being forced out of his ownership position at Chelsea.
