Chelsea have at least 150m to spend in January after transfer ban lifted as fans predict another era of dominance

CHELSEA will have at least 150million to spend in January after their transfer ban was lifted – with fans predicting another era of Blues dominance.

Owner Roman Abramovich is set to hand Frank Lampard a mega transfer budget this winter after a spend-free summer, according to the Telegraph.

Chelsea learnt on Friday their ban had been reduced to one window – meaning they are allowed to revert to their old selves and splash big on ready-made superstars, such as Ben Chilwell and Jadon Sancho.

The Blues have been infamous for neglecting their talented youngsters and spending big since Abramovich took over in 2003.

New boss Lampard has embraced the transfer ban though and given long runs to the likes of Mason Mount, Fikayo Tomori and Tammy Abraham – all of whom have thrived and even earned themselves England caps.

But just as football fans began to appreciate Chelsea‘s newfound strategy, Blues supporters are revelling in the thought of “ruining football” once more by dominating the top flight.

One fan wrote: “Chelsea’s ban officially reduced. Lets ruin football again.”

Another said: “Chelsea football club coming to ruin football again with Roman splashing the cash and Im here for it.”

A third added: “Hahaha here we go everybody, Chelsea Football Club are back and ready to take over again.”
