Diego Moreira Transfer from Strasbourg to Chelsea
Chelsea are reportedly connected with re-signing Diego Moreira this summer. A buy-back clause was included when he moved to Strasbourg in 2024, which allows them to bring him back. Chelsea may choose to bring him back before selling him for a profit, and there is interest from Borussia Dortmund. The versatile 21-year-old could also be kept as a squad player if Chelsea decides to keep him.

Chelsea FC has an attractive buy-back option for Diego Moreira, but it is regarded as unlikely that the club will activate it. This is partly because Strasbourg and Chelsea have the same owners, and it would be more financially beneficial for the consortium to sell him directly to another club.

According to Florian Plettenberg, Chelsea are believed to hold a very favorable buy-back option for former player Diego Moreira. It is not yet clear if Chelsea are actually interested in re-signing him, but the buy-back clause gives them that option.

Chelsea are reportedly expressing interest in re-signing 21-year-old Diego Moreira from Strasbourg, a club also owned by BlueCo, because of his impressive form in Ligue 1. According to TBR Football, the London club could have an option to trigger a low-cost buy-back clause for the Belgian-Portuguese player, who can play at left-back or in midfield. The same report notes that Chelsea initially sold him for £1.7m and it is believed his buy-back clause will not be significantly higher than that amount. A transfer between the clubs has been arranged previously; Chelsea arranged for Emanuel Emegha to join from Strasbourg in 2026, a move reported by BBC Sport. Moreira's contract at Strasbourg runs until 2029. Transfermarkt estimates his market value to be €18m, and he has also attracted interest from clubs in Italy and Turkey.
