US EditionChelsea Signs French Defender Sarr From Sister Club Strasbourg
- Chelsea signed 19-year-old centre-back Mamadou Sarr from Ligue 1’s Strasbourg on June 9, 2025, with an eight-year contract.
- Sarr progressed through Lens’ youth system, debuted professionally for Lyon in 2023, then moved to Strasbourg in 2024 and impressed in Ligue 1.
- Strasbourg finished seventh last season, qualifying for the UEFA Conference League, with Sarr making 27 appearances and playing vital defensive roles.
- Chelsea described Sarr as a talented, calm defender capped by France’s under-20s, and coach Liam Rosenior called him 'world-class' and 'scary'.
- The signing reinforces Chelsea’s defense amid injury concerns, though Sarr is unlikely to start immediately and will join before the Club World Cup.
