I thought deals between sister clubs were illegal now.Chelsea are set to sell Deivid Washington to partner club Strasbourg after he only played 28 minutes for the Premier League side.
The Brazilian striker arrived at Stamford Bridge from Santos last summer in a transfer worth €16million.
He made just three appearances from the bench late on in games last season – two in the league and one in the FA Cup.
Despite less than half an hour of action for the Blues, the 19-year-old will reportedly make a deadline day switch to Ligue 1.
Strasbourg will break their transfer record by paying Chelsea around €21million for Washington, according to L’Equipe.
So they make a profit selling a flop to another club owned by Todd Boehly. That's not dodgy at all. WTF is going on at chelsea?
It's clearly still a decent level below us, Arsenal and the dippers, so really only 1 top 4 spot up for grabstbf in theory on paper a midfield/forward line of
..........Enzo.........Caciedo...
Sancho.....Palmer.......Felix
................Jackson..............
Should be a top 4 finish expectaion.
the defence is maybe a bit ropey
As said in theory not yey practice, if Maresca does keep to his set 21 man squad and defined playing system the potential is there.It's clearly still a decent level below us, Arsenal and the dippers, so really only 1 top 4 spot up for grabs
But in theory, it's not a bad midfield/forward line, but again in that said you've got 2 young players who've not made on their potential in Felix and Sancho
Also still think the jury is out on Enzo-Caceido midfield, they look far from a world class partnership
Jackson gets goals, but he will miss a bunch
Also having Madueke, Nkunku, Neto, Mudryk on paper seems good but these players are all at the same level, thays not helpful as you'll chop and change based off short runs of form
The club is a mess still, I'd be very surprised if they got top 4
Think this only applies when the clubs are in the same UEFA competition as regards the others the fee has to be ratified as fair market value. An example close to home is SavinhoI thought deals between sister clubs were illegal now.
