Chelsea fans sweat over Pulisic as FIFA imposes transfer ban

February 22, 2019

Fans of English side, Chelsea football club, have reacted with fear to the fate of American international, Christian Pulisic, with the lates transfer ban slameed on the club by football governing body, FIFA.

Chelsea will be unable to sign players for two transfer windows after being found guilty of breaching rules about signing players aged under 18.

The Premier League club have also been fined more than £460,000.

England’s football body, the Football Association (FA), faces a £390,000 sanction.

The FA and Chelsea say they will appeal FIFA’s decisions.

The latest ban means Chelsea will be able to sell players but not register any new signings.

Fans have now expressed concerns over Pulisic’s fate despite his transfer from Borussia Dortmund being registered in FIFA’s Transfer Matching System (TMS) in January according to Sky Germany.

Pulisic is already registered right so say someone we were still banned for this summer would be still be allowed to play?

Damn that's fucked up. Hazard probably coming to Madrid this summer too. Do they get Pulisic?

If Chelsea are banned from registering players what the fuck happens with Pulisic

What does this mean for pulisic, because they're not allowed to register anyone right? Although a fee has been agreed he'll need registering no?

We clearly knew this was coming with the Pulisic deal being confirmed in January and a 18 month Higuain loan

Chelsea’s transfer ban (which will probably be overturned or reduced) puts a whole new slant on the Pulisic deal. Not only does it ensure they replaced Hazard but they probably knew this was coming so they had to sign someone younger rather than their usual late-20s mercenary.

Can Pulisic still join Chelsea?

So what do Chelsea do about Christian Pulisic? I mean, he is bought, but he was not registered as a Chelsea player and then loaned back to BVB. Basically, they'll have to wait until the summer of 2020 before they can get him.

Wait a second, what happens with pulisic and the transfer ban?

Wad about pulisic deal @NizaarKinsella

Will this mean Chelsea can't register Pulisic to play for a year btw? Cause that'd be quite funny

Pulisic was signed and loaned back.
He's safe.
It will be sad to see Kovacic and Higuain leave at the end of the season because we can't sign them. https://t.co/lpV53iSgMj
