Chelsea banned from signing new players

The English club Chelsea has been banned from signing new players during the next two transfer windows. The ban stops Chelsea from adding talent to the team until January of 2011. It was imposed by FIFA which states that Chelsea tampered with a French player, encouraging him to break his contract with his club Lens and sign with Chelsea. The English club has stated that it will "mount the strongest appeal possible." If the penalty stands it will certainly shake up the Premier League.
