Franco-Senegalese defender Mamadou Sarr, aged 19 and playing for Racing Club Strasbourg, is preparing to join Chelsea. The London club paid 20 million euros to secure the services of this nugget, son of former Senegalese international Pape Sarr.
Chelsea, always on the lookout for promising young talents, continues to target the Senegalese. After the acquisition of Nicolas Jackson and Pape Daouda Diongue loaned to Strasbourg, the Blues have just acquired Mamadou Sarr trained in Lyon and trained by Moleenbeck.
However, the transfer will not come into effect until the end of the season. Until then, Mamadou Sarr will remain on loan at Strasbourg, where he will be able to continue his progress in an environment he knows well. Sarr is one of the dual nationals targeted by the Senegalese Football Federation (FSF) to join the national football team, now led by Pape Thiaw.
The player’s agents have finalized an agreement with Chelsea, thus validating a transition planned for next summer. All this is ultimately just a matter of business and opportunity because the American consortium BlueCo which owns Chelsea also owns Racing Club Strasbourg. In the end, it is “Chelsbourg” who wins. For his part, Sarr will take a step forward in his career by joining the prestigious Premier League.
