Strasbourg fans are tired of Chelsea: it s all for their benefit

According to Marca, Strasbourg fans are tired of Chelsea because they feel that their team is always used by the other side.

Chelsea and Strasbourg are both controlled by the BlueCo consortium where Burleigh is located. The two clubs completed 9 player transfer transactions in just half a year. Chelsea players such as Kendrie Pais and Mike Penders were sent to Strasbourg, while Mamadu Saar transferred from Strasbourg to Chelsea for 12 million euros and was immediately leased back to Strasbourg. Strasbourg fans criticized this ongoing player transfer behavior and accused Chelsea of using the team as a springboard to achieve its own interests.

Alexander Hummel, a representative of Strasbourg fan organization, said in an interview: "From Saar's transfer and other cases, it is obvious that we are not trading in the free market, but operating within the same company, all of which is to benefit Chelsea."
