Same owner = easy transfer: Chelsea close to signing Strasbourg prospect

Nowadays, there are few “love stories” in football like the one between Chelsea and their affiliate club, Strasbourg.And, as always in love, one side always ends up worse off. In this case, it’s the French club, which practically depends on the Blues.To sum up Strasbourg’s situation – Chelsea gives, Chelsea takes.Chelsea and Strasbourg join to organize protest against their ownersWhen the London side has a young prospect ready for a loan, it’ll most likely send him to Stade de la Meinau.

It’s Strasbourg players whom the Ligue 1 side is practically forced to sell to the Blues, all becau..

More bad news for Arsenal: Going into key EPL battles without their general of defence?

Arsenal’s season has entered its final stage, and things do not look good for the North London side at the moment. Yes, they are still at the top of the Premier League, though their form doesn’t make the fans overly optimistic.Each of their recent wins was hard-fought, while the defeats in the EFL Cup final to Manchester City and in the FA Cup quarter-finals to the second-tier side Southampton must have shaken the squad and its morale.Arsenalโ€™s fear of trophies?
