Chelsea have already made four signings for the summer transfer window.
The likes of Dastan Satpaev, Geovany Quenda, Emanuel Emegha and Denner are all set to join Chelsea after agreeing deals.
Emegha currently plays at sister club Strasbourg, where he played under Liam Rosenior.
However, there have been issues with the striker over in France. Emegha was suspended over behavioural problems and injuries have plagued him at times.
But Liam Rosenior has been very complimentary of the striker, calling him ‘amazing’ and ‘fantastic’ during the win over Crystal Palace prior to moving to Chelsea.
There’s bad news now, though.

Emanuel Emegha ruled out for two months
His last competitive appearance was on November 30, 2025, a brief 21-minute cameo in a 2-1 defeat to Brest. Following that match, he was handed a one-game internal suspension for comments regarding his future move to Chelsea and a perceived lack of respect for Strasbourg’s standing.
During this disciplinary period, Emegha suffered a significant thigh injury in training. While he was nearing a return in late January, he suffered a muscle relapse just days ago.
And according to Strasbourg manager Gary O’Neil, this latest setback is expected to sideline him for at least another two months.
“Emanuel Emegha will be out for about 2 months. It’s very tough and frustrating for him. He injured himself in the same spot as last time.”
