The potential sale of some of Chelsea's key players this summer could be due to the losses of £121 million the club has recently reported, which has been blamed on the sanctions imposed on former owner Roman Abramovich. This would mean that academy products such as Mason Mount and Conor Gallagher may have to be sold for the club to be able to adhere to Financial Fair Play rules. The government sanctioned Abramovich in March of last year in an attempt to freeze assets connected to Russian President Vladimir Putin. These restrictions on the club lasted until May 30th of last year when a consortium led by Todd Boehly took ownership. Chelsea's statement announced that the impact of the sanctions on their financial results would be felt in the following years. The losses were a result of increased operating expenses, despite the turnover increasing to £481.3m and commercial revenue rising to £177.1m.
