Roman Abramovich added to the UK's sanctions list

Chelsea are set to lose a minimum of £600,000 per home matchday after Russian owner Roman Abramovich had his assets frozen by the UK Government, according to OLBG.

The sanctions imposed on the Blues owner have greatly affected the club but Chelsea have been allowed to continue operating under a special "Russia Regulations" license, meaning they can continue playing games this season.

However, one of the sanctions placed on the club will prevent away fans from attending games at Stamford Bridge and only season ticket holders will be allowed to attend - unless individual matchday tickets were purchased prior to Thursday's ruling.

Stamford Bridge holds 40,834 fans and with there being approximately 28,000 season ticket holders, that leaves just under 13,000 unsold tickets per game.

Chelsea's lowest ticket price currently stands at £47, meaning they could potentially face losing £603,198 per game.

The Blues are set to welcome Brentford, West Ham, Wolves and Watford in the Premier League and could host home ties in the FA Cup and UEFA Champions League - that's at least £2.4million.

Their next home game is against Newcastle on Sunday but that match was already sold out before Thursday's sanctions were announced.

An OLBG study found that Chelsea’s previous average lost match day revenue from unsold tickets was approximately £154,254.
