Barclays has temporarily blocked Chelsea's club credit cards in the wake of the UK government's sanctioning of Roman Abramovich.
Chelsea employees with company credit cards are currently unable to use them. Chelsea's Barclays bank account was believed to have been frozen earlier this evening, however the club now claims that the account is still operating this evening.
Chelsea's various accounts have been temporarily suspended, according to the Press Association, while banks examine their operating license.
After Abramovich had "his assets frozen, a prohibition on dealings with UK individuals and businesses, a travel ban, and transit sanctions" imposed on him, the UK government granted Chelsea permission to continue with football-related operations on Thursday.
The restrictions are designed to prevent the 55-year-old from earning any money in the United Kingdom, but the government has granted Chelsea a special license that allows fixtures to be completed, employees to be paid, and existing ticket holders to attend matches.
Chelsea, on the other hand, is currently unable to issue new contracts to players or personnel, undertake any transfer activity, or sell new match tickets.
On Sunday, Chelsea will face Newcastle United in a Sky Sports match.
