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 Ł680,000 and will have to pay Lens Ł113,000 in compensation.
Kakuta, a regular in Chelsea's reserve side, has also been banned from playing for the next four months.

Im sure chelsea will lodge an appeal with the court of arbitration for sport, cant see the ban being upheld tbh, its very harsh punishment, even if rules were broken.

i might be wrong but im sure they were warned about this sort of thing before
when they signed jon obi mikel (sp) !!!!!!!!
i think he had signed for man utd then chelsea persuaded him to sign for them for more money ...................
hence quite a harsh punishment ......
