It's the consequence of the invasion that they did to Ukraine. World Cup and as well as other big events made their decision.

Russia banned from World Cup, other major sports competitions amid war in Ukraine

Both currently are totally hit with their economy but soon, with these sanctions will surely hit more on Russia's side which includes majority sporting events.

I would like to correct the wording -this is not an Ukraine -Russia war, this is an aggressive invasion of Ukraine by order of Vladimir Putin. Most Russians did not get a say on this.

Now, the football is linked to the global economy and it is a leisure activity, which traditionally suffers when practically anything out of the ordinary happens: terrorist attacks, wars, natural catastrophes,... that is how it works so no surprise.

Sports especially football is loosing money because of the Russia-Ukraine war. UEFA might loose Gazprom's €40 million (S$60.66 million) a year sponsorship  deal for moving 2022 Champions League final to Stade de France in Paris instead of Gazprom Arena in Saint Petersburg.  Schalke nine million euros ($10 million) per year in sponsorship deal have been prematurely cancelled due to Russian invasion.

Martial law has been imposed in Ukraine this means that all  domestic football league being officially suspended. This means that the clubs might loose money and players. Sponsorship deals might be cancelled because of economic challenges that most sponsors are facing due to the war.  Players and fans might also suffer from psychological problems.

The war would also increase racism. Russian players might be racially abused in other countries. While NATO country citizens might not be welcomed to Russia.

Clubs like Chelsea, Bournemouth, AS Monaco, Cercle Brugge and Vitesse Arnhem might be affected by sanctions because they are owned in full or partially by Russian oligarchs. Roman Abramovich revolutionized the EPL when he heavily invested in an average club Chelsea. He turned the club to a world-class football team winning five Premier League titles, five FA Cups, two Champions League trophies, three League Cups, two Europa League and one world club trophies.Currently, he might loose the club or be forced to sell it less passionate clients.    

World sports will indeed miss Ukraine and Russia.
