Rising Chelsea star set for Ligue 1 loan spell

In their effort to streamline the squad, Chelsea is reportedly set to loan out one of their backup goalkeepers until 2025. The Serbian international, who is under contract with the Blues until 2030, is expected to make a move to France, where he will spend the remainder of the season.

As Chelsea continues to push for the signing of African star Victor Osimhen, offloading surplus players is essential to provide the financial flexibility and squad reduction needed. It’s worth noting that key figures like Romelu Lukaku and Kepa Arrizabalaga have already departed Stamford Bridge, joining Napoli and Bournemouth, respectively.

Chelsea goalkeeper Djordje Petrovic set for Strasbourg

Chelsea goalkeeper Djordje Petrovic is set to join French club Strasbourg on a loan deal. The 24-year-old has agreed to new terms with Enzo Maresca and the Chelsea management before heading to the French League. The loan will last until June 2025, after which Petrovic is expected to return to Stamford Bridge. Both clubs are currently finalizing the necessary paperwork, as reported by Fabrizio Romano via X.

While this move is unlikely to have a significant impact on Chelsea’s Premier League campaign, it will help reduce the size of their squad. Additionally, this decision will alleviate some of the financial pressure on the Todd Boehly-owned club, which has already invested heavily in signings like Pedro Neto from Wolves and Joao Felix from Atletico Madrid.

In their latest move to bolster the goalkeeping department, Chelsea have signed Villarreal goalkeeper Filip Jørgensen, securing the Danish international from the Spanish club for an undisclosed fee.

Additionally, the Pensioners have reportedly prepared a shortlist of potential targets, including 22-year-old Portuguese defender Tomas Araújo, as a contingency plan in case any current squad members make a last-minute departure from the club.
