CHELSEA AND ASTON VILLA FACE UEFA PENALTIES.

Chelsea and Aston Villa are set to receive penalties from UEFA for breaching financial rules. 

The two Premier League teams will be fined for first-time breaches, with Chelsea believed to have exceeded the limits on financial losses for last season.

The case for Chelsea stems from UEFA not recognizing the £200 million revenue from selling their women's team to a sister company. 

Unlike the Premier League, UEFA does not allow clubs to declare income from selling assets to sister companies.

Aston Villa has also breached the financial limits, which allow clubs to lose a maximum of €200 million over a three-year period and both teams are expected to face fines, with the exact penalties yet to be determined.
