Telegraph: There are two reasons why the Blues bought Sar and rented it out: let the players play the Club World Cup & control the price

July 31, The Daily Telegraph talked about two reasons why Chelsea defender Mamadu Sal was on loan back to Strasbourg.

Chelsea has made several deals with sister club Strasbourg this summer, including the Blues' official signing of Mamadu Saar and then loaned him back to Strasbourg. But this has caused many questions from fans, and it is understood that there are two main reasons.

First, Mamadu Sal got the opportunity to compete with Chelsea in the Club World Cup. He trained with the team for a month and was able to adapt to the game environment of giant clubs. Secondly, it is expected that by next summer, if the Blues sign him again, the price will be even more expensive.

Although Strasbourg and Chelsea are the same boss, Chelsea still have to abide by the relevant financial rules of the Premier League and they cannot price at will in their transfer deals with Strasbourg.

In addition to the transfer operation, Chelsea is also negotiating with several potential jersey chest advertising sponsors, and the club is expected to eventually receive a generous sponsorship agreement, and the successful contracted companies will be able to display their logo on the Blues jersey.
