Fifa have banned Chelsea from registering any new players in the next two transfer windows.

The world's governing body have handed down the punishment after French clubs Lens made an official complaint over Chelsea's signing of their young player Gael Kakuta in 2007.

Fifa's Dispute Resolution Chamber (DRC) has now found in Lens' favour and ruled that Chelsea are 'jointly and severally liable'.

As such Chelsea have been banned from signing players over the next two transfer windows, which will mean they will not be able to bring a player into the club until 2011.

As well as the ban Chelsea have been fined £680,000 and will have to pay Lens £113,000 in compensation.

Kakuta, a regular in Chelsea's reserve side, has also been banned from playing for the next four months.

They can sign any players till 2011

Lucky Lens

Chelsea sucks ,,|,,

That's a bit out of the blue (no pun intended) and probably a very harsh decision. Although I think the punishment will be reduced when Chelsea do appeal.

I think FIFA might surprise us here...
Arsenal Liverpool and Real next

You've gone retarded?

Chelsea has been banned because they told the player to breach his contract with Lens. Dealing with a specific country doesn't matter

Yup. We have been criticized at length over players like Davide Petrucci, Kiko Macheda, and that Pogba dude...
