What exactly did the Blues do to receive disciplinary sanctions and are they able to reverse the decision?
Chelsea have been slapped with a two-window transfer ban and a fine by FIFA, meaning they will now have to make alternative plans when it comes to their immediate recruitment approach.
The game's world governing body announced the sanction, which relates to breaches concerning the transfer of players who are under 18, on Friday and the Premier League club are now be formulating their response.
The Stamford Bridge outfit are expected to exhaust every avenue that is available to them as they seek to challenge the decision and preserve their reputation.
