Roma were already banned a few years back, but it was scaled back after an appeal. So it's not like, there hasn't been non-english precedent.

Chelsea aren't the only team to do this, but they are the only ones to have been caught. And from what I understand, the player was not just a youth trainee, but was actually under contract to Lens.
