Ben Chilwell Transfer from Chelsea to Strasbourg
L'Équipe reports on Ben Chilwell's release from Chelsea and his subsequent signing with Strasbourg. Chelsea released Ben Chilwell from his contract (which had two years left and was worth €850,000 per month) so he could sign for Strasbourg. The operation was financially neutral for Strasbourg.
Ben Chilwell, England international full-back, has joined Ligue 1's Strasbourg on a two-year deal from Chelsea. The transfer, confirmed by Strasbourg on Monday, does not disclose financial terms. Chilwell, 28, brings Premier League and European experience but faced injuries and competition at Chelsea, limiting his playtime. After a loan to Crystal Palace and an FA Cup win, he now joins Strasbourg, owned by BlueCo consortium like Chelsea, aiming to bolster their squad with experienced talent. He will reunite with ex-Chelsea players and coach Liam Rosenior, enhancing the young team with his leadership.
Ben Chilwell has signed a two-year contract with RC Strasbourg Alsace. The transfer was completed after the transfer window officially closed. Chilwell joins an ambitious project at Strasbourg with Liam Rosenior, who will compete in this season’s Conference League. This move comes after a difficult season for Chilwell at Chelsea and an unsuccessful loan period at Crystal Palace. Fabrizio Romano announced the completion of the deal, stating that the medical examination has been done.
Ben Chilwell, aged 28 and an experienced player with 21 international caps for England, is expected to move from Chelsea to Strasbourg. He has won the Champions League and Club World Cup in 2021, and was on loan at Crystal Palace, winning the Cup there. Despite being captain of Chelsea in the 2023-2024 season, he faced several injuries. Fabrizio Romano announced that Chilwell will sign a two-year contract with Strasbourg. He still had two years remaining on his significant contract with Chelsea.
According to Goal.com, there is a potential transfer in the works involving Chelsea's Ben Chilwell, an English defender, who might be moving to the French club Strasbourg. At 28 years old, Chilwell has reportedly caught the attention of Strasbourg as a target in what could be another BlueCo-related deal. This transfer forms part of Chelsea's broader strategy to sell players, with Chilwell seen as someone who might gain from a new opportunity at Strasbourg, a club associated with Chelsea's ownership group, BlueCo. This possible transfer underscores Chelsea's ongoing efforts to reorganize their squad and manage their player roster more efficiently. Chilwell's contract with Chelsea is due to expire on June 30, 2027, with Transfermarkt estimating his market value at €15 million. Additionally, other clubs such as Everton and Leeds United have shown interest in the player.
