Chelsea to offer Emanuel Emegha 6-year contract | OneFootball

According to a report from Foot Mercato, Chelsea FC are set to offer Emanuel Emegha (22) a six-year contract ahead of a move away from RC Strasbourg Alsace.

Emegha has long been linked with a transfer between the two sister clubs, with the Dutch forward flourishing under the tutelage of head coach Liam Rosenior. Last season, Emegha scored nine in 31 games across all competitions; this jumped up to 14 goals in 29 games this season.

Fabrizio Romano explained earlier today that while a transfer is expected, it is very unlikely that Emegha will play his football in England next season. Emegha will likely be loaned back to Strasbourg to help the club compete in the UEFA Europa Conference League.

Despite finishing outside of the European places when Ligue 1 finished, Strasbourg were given a lifeline when Paris Saint-Germain defeated Stade de Reims in the Coupe de France final. As the next best placed team, Strasbourg were given the Coupe de France European spot.
