According to financial expert Stefan Borson, Chelsea will be extremely concerned in light of the news that broke this afternoon.

He told TalkSPORT that the Premier League points deduction awarded to Everton today would be concerning for a team whose financial department is already beset with issues.

Todd Boehly and his associates are making preparations for an investigation subsequent to their self-reporting of several misdemeanours during the previous administration of the club.

They may have been certain they could escape with a light sanction, but the news of the day could cause them to reconsider that belief.

As a result of the allegation of financial fair play, Everton has suffered a 10-point deduction.

Borson has now asserted that the potential repercussions of their prospective case should cause the Blues grave concern.

He stated, “I believe it differs significantly from the UEFA’s stance on sanctions.” We have entered a new domain as the tribunal has evidently concluded, in part on the basis of a previous case involving Sheffield Wednesday and the Football League, that a sporting sanction rather than a monetary sanction is more appropriate.

“Many clubs, not just Chelsea, will certainly be extremely concerned upon viewing this.”

“Even a minor violation can result in significant sporting sanctions.”

Due to the potentially protracted nature of the investigation, Mauricio Pochettino will continue to focus on the field following his side following two exceptionally impressive outings.

In both matches against Manchester City and Tottenham, they scored eight goals and accumulated four points, appearing the superior and more threatening squad.

It is uncertain whether Chelsea will restrain its extravagant spending in January, as the club is rumored to be considering the acquisition of a striker.
