Chelsea avoids big UEFA fine for financial breaches but sister club Strasbourg must pay almost $15M
UEFA said Chelsea avoided harsher punishment after missing financial targets, while Strasbourg received the largest penalty among 14 clubs.
- On Tuesday, UEFA fined Chelsea 1 million euros for financial breaches, while sister club Strasbourg received the heaviest penalty of 13 million euros among 14 clubs that broke monitoring rules.
- The penalty followed Chelsea missing strict financial targets after spending more than 70% of revenue on wages and transfers in 2025, despite a prior 31 million euros fine one year earlier.
- Chelsea secured nearly $115 million from FIFA after winning the FIFA Club World Cup and generated about $90 million in June from Manchester City for hiring coach Enzo Maresca and selling defender Marc Cucurella to Real Madrid.
- Revenue is set to drop significantly next season as Chelsea will not play in the Champions League or any European competition after finishing 10th in the Premier League.
- Aston Villa was ordered to pay 7.5 million euros on Tuesday, a one-third reduction from its UEFA financial sanction last year as the Europa League holder prepares for Champions League play.
