September 11th, reporter Jacobs published a message revealing the specific details of the FA's allegation that Chelsea violated the broker's regulations during Abraham's reign.

These allegations are historical issues and are actively declared by Chelsea in due diligence before the formal takeover of the Creel Lake Burley Consortium. The vast majority of violations occurred between 2010 and 2016. Chelsea has fully opened its financial accounts to the FA. The Premier League also launched an investigation simultaneously, mainly involving the failure to declare broker commissions truthfully in the accounts, and Chelsea has hired a large accounting firm to analyze the violations. The club believes that it has not gained a competitive advantage because of this and will argue that there is no need to impose competitive penalties.

Penalties may include fines, settlement agreements or competitive sanctions. The Crier Lake Burley consortium took the initiative to inform relevant regulatory agencies of violations and showed high transparency.
