The west London club was put up for sale only last week as calls for him to be sanctioned grew over his close links to Russian President Vladimir Putin's regime.
Abramovich has not condemned Russia's invasion of its neighbor in two statements since the war began two weeks ago. The British government said Abramovich has obtained financial benefits from Putin's administration, including contracts in the buildup to Russia hosting the 2018 World Cup.

The club also has to stop selling merchandise at its shop.
The club has been effectively placed under a transfer ban since it cannot spend on registering new players, while there are doubts over the ability to offer new contracts.
