Amid all the noise surrounding Liam Rosenior, Chelsea continue to scour the market for summer additions and another Strasbourg player has been added to the Blues radar.
Just this weekend, Strasbourg fans crossed the channel to join Chelsea supporters in a planned protest of BlueCo’s leadership. If Chelsea fans are unhappy with BlueCo, imagine how Strasbourg fans feel.
While Chelsea’s fanbase are unhappy with the way the club have operated in the transfer market, the side across the pond have become fed up with Chelsea constantly signing their players or recalling loan stars.

This summer, Emanuel Emegha will join Chelsea. Valentin Barco is expected to join Emegha at Stamford Bridge while Argentine striker Jonathan Panichelli has been considered for a move to West London.
Now, Chelsea are eyeing another Strasbourg player this summer
That means, this summer, five of Strasbourg’s senior squad will move to Chelsea. Mike Penders, Aaron Anselmino and David Fofana are all currently on loan with the Ligue 1 side, and will return to Chelsea.
Now, a report from Africa Foot claim Chelsea are also considering a move to sign winger Martial Godo. The former Fulham star only joined Strasbourg last summer, but has sparkled since his move to France.

This season, he has had a hand in 20 goals. In the Europa League, he has four goals and three assists in nine games and that form has alerted those at Chelsea over possibly adding him to the Blues squad.
A report from 225Foot in Turkey, however, claims the London-born Ivory Coast international is also a target for Besiktas. It is believed Godo is rated at £15m, but that fee could be a lot bigger this summer.
Martial Godo’s arrival is bad news for a current Chelsea duo
At Chelsea, the Blues currently boast four senior wingers. Pedro Neto is first choice, while there are high hopes for Estevao. This summer, the ninth-best teen in the world will join Chelsea, in Geovany Quenda.

That already points to a bloated number of options on the flanks, with Kendry Paez also set to return from his loan at River Plate. Decisions will have to be made, but Alejandro Garnacho will fear for his future.
Earlier this week, Paul Scholes suggested Garnacho joins Atletico Madrid, amid reports that Chelsea are keen to move the former Man United man on. Jamie Gittens has struggled in a Chelsea shirt since joining.
With Quenda already arriving and the possibility of Godo returning to West London following his stint at Fulham, the chances are that Chelsea will have to sell one or two wingers. Garnacho and Gittens, perhaps.
