Chelsea have been linked with a potential transfer move for Strasbourg’s highly-rated young striker Emanuel Emegha as he’s tipped for a big future.
Speaking on the London Is Blue podcast, Telegraph journalist Matt Law stated that he’s heard very promising things about Emegha, who looks like one to watch for Chelsea.
The 22-year-old is currently with fellow BlueCo club Strasbourg, scoring 14 goals in 27 league matches last season.
It now seems he’s being tipped as someone Chelsea could target soon before his value skyrockets, as he’s expected to become someone worth €50m soon, whereas he could now realistically move for more like €25m…

Law said: “I was told by someone who works around the Strasbourg end of things, that they believe that one day this guy could be a 50 million-plus striker, and again, I think maybe they’re looking to do an early deal for him, to get him into a Chelsea player, is looking at that fair market value.
“Because if you do it now, you can probably do it around… I’m guessing here. I don’t know that this is a figure, but say 25 million. If you do it another year down the line, you might be looking at a fair market value of around 40 million.”
