EPL: Chelsea agree deal to sign Emanuel Emegha


Chelsea have reached an agreement to sign Emanuel Emegha from Strasbourg in 2026.
The two clubs are owned by BlueCo, a consortium comprising Clearlake Capital and Todd Boehly.
Emegha scored 14 goals and provided three assists in 27 Ligue 1 matches last season.
The 22-year-old began his career at Jong Sparta before playing for Sparta Rotterdam, Antwerp and Sturm Graz.
He joined Strasbourg in 2023.
The move follows BlueCo’s signing of Brighton midfielder Julio Enciso in the summer transfer window. Enciso will play for Strasbourg this season after signing a four-year deal.
He is also expected to eventually move to Chelsea.
