<br />Chelsea have been banned from registering any new players for the next two transfer windows in a shock move by FIFA after being found guilty of inducing a French teenager to breach his contract with another club. Gael Kakuta (pictured), 18, joined Chelsea from Lens two years ago after which the French club lodged a complaint with FIFA.<p>Now FIFA's dispute resolution chamber has ruled that Kakuta breached his contract with Lens and that Chelsea induced him to do so. They now cannot make any signings until January 2011, while the player has been fined £682,000 and banned for four months. Chelsea havea right to appeal the decision directly to the Court of Arbitration for Sport in Switzerland.</p><p>FIFA said in a statement: "The French club had lodged a claim with FIFA seeking compensation for breach of contract from the player and requesting also sporting sanctions to be imposed on the player and the English club for breach of contract and inducement to breach of contract respectively. "The DRC found that the player had indeed breached a contract signed with the French club. Equally, the DRC deemed it to be established that the English club induced the player to such breach.</p><p>"As a result the player was condemned to pay compensation in the amount of 780,000 euros (£682,000), for which the club, Chelsea, is jointly and severally liable, and sporting sanctions were imposed on both the player and Chelsea in accordance with art. 17 par. 3 and 4 of the Regulations on the Status and Transfer of Players.</p><p>"A restriction of four months on his eligibility to play in official matches is imposed on the player Gael Kakuta while the club Chelsea is banned from registering any new players, either nationally or internationally, for the two next entire and consecutive registration periods following the notification of the present decision. "Furthermore, Chelsea, has to pay RC Lens training compensation in the amount of 130,000 euros (£114,000)."

Chris Brown on Larry King Live: The Full Interview | SoSoJuicy

<p>Chris Brown was - and still is - in love with Rihanna, he says.</p>
<p>But he wasn't emotionally prepared to deal with rough patches.</p>
<p>"I'm not saying domestic violence is a part of relationships," he said when asked by Larry King on CNN's<em> Larry King Live</em>. "But we're both young, nobody taught us how to love one another. No one taught us how to control our emotions, our anger."</p>
<p>In the gut-wrenching, hour-long interview, his first since beating Rihanna in February, Brown said all he can do is hope for a "bunch of better tomorrows."</p>
<p>"I've said countless times how sorry I am - to Rihanna," Brown said. "It's a night I wish I could just take back ... I feel totally ashamed of what I did."</p>
<p>Brown repeatedly refused to discuss the specifics of the fight and why he treated Rihanna the way he did, at one point saying he <a href="http://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/2009/08/chris-brown-still-in-love-with-rihanna-does-not-remember-assault-beating/" rel="nofollow">didn't even remember</a>.</p>
<p>Clearly nervous, with his voice cracking, Brown just misspoke there. He was shy on details, but at the same time, didn't make excuses - nor has he ever.</p>

<p><em>Chris Brown on the hot seat on Larry King Live</em>.</p>
<p>"One of the things that's interesting about Chris, he wanted to take responsibility immediately," said his defense attorney, Mark Geragos. "He did not want to deny this... there was <a href="http://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/2009/09/chris-brown-on-larry-king-ashamed-full-of-regret/" rel="nofollow">a lot of remorse</a>. That's unusual in my line of work."</p>
<p>As for the punishment he received - five years' probation, counseling and community labor - Chris Brown feels there are better ways for him to help.</p>
<p>"I feel like with what I'm capable of doing as far as influencing people, influencing kids, I could do a lot more to help the community other than picking up trash," he said, adding, "I'm not saying it's wrong, but there's a lot more I could do."</p>
<p>Geragos thinks that counseling will certainly help Brown, whom he's come to love "like a son or a nephew." Brown said "I don't think, at the end of the day, my career's over," and that he's "pretty sure [he and <a href="http://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/2009/09/rihanna-topless-terrifying-in-vogue-italy/" rel="nofollow">Rihanna</a>] can be friends."</p>
