For the time being :

The Court of Arbitration for Sport (Cas) has granted Chelsea's request for their Fifa transfer ban to be suspended pending a final decision.

Fifa had ruled the club could not sign players until 2011 after inducing Gael Kakuta to break his Lens contract.

But Chelsea appealed to Cas, which said on Friday: "Such sanctions are now stayed until the Cas renders its final decision in this matter."

The decision means Chelsea will be able to sign players in January.

That's 4 transfer windows worth of shopping Ancelotti will be up for in January.
 
Every football fan on the planet saw that one coming as soon as the ban was imposed. Typical of modern football authorities, not a spine to boast of between them.
