Chelsea and Strasbourg Partnership to Continue with Imminent Move for Jessim Yassin

The close relationship between Chelsea and Strasbourg, facilitated by their multi-club ownership, continues to thrive despite backlash from French supporters who fear becoming a feeder club. Following previous moves involving players like Mike Penders, Valentín Barco, and Emanuel Emegha, another high-profile transfer is on the horizon.

According to Ekrem Konur, 20-year-old talent Jessim Yassin is closing in on a move to Chelsea. Negotiations are at an advanced stage, and the Moroccan youngster—who switched his international allegiance to France last January—is reportedly very keen on the transfer. While the exact fee remains undisclosed, his market value stands at €20 million, a figure likely to guide negotiations given the clubs' shared ownership structure. Yassin has started the 2026/27 campaign strongly, contributing 2 goals and 1 assist in his first 6 appearances.
