Chelsea Football Club has been fined £10 million and received a suspended two-window transfer ban for breaking agent rules. The club's current owners disclosed 74 violations of Football Association regulations, which took place between 2009 and 2022 during a prior ownership period. An initial suspended six-point deduction was overturned on appeal and replaced with the suspended transfer ban.
