**Filip Jorgensen appears to be having a bit more luck at his new club Strasbourg.**
[Filip Jorgensen](https://www.thechelseachronicle.com/tag/filip-jorgensen/)โs spell at Chelsea has seen him struggle to establish himself as the undisputed first-choice goalkeeper. Arriving from Villarreal in July 2024 for a fee around ยฃ20.7 million, he initially logged 36 appearances, featuring prominently during Chelseaโs Conference League-winning run, before injury setbacks and rotational shifts reduced his role behind Robert Sanchez.
Chelsea have not sold Jorgensen, as he remains under a long-term contract at Stamford Bridge through June 2031. Instead, he joined sister club RC Strasbourg on a season-long loan for the 2026โ27 campaign to secure consistent first-team minutes.
And itโs safe to say that itโs gone well so far.

Starting against Lens in Ligue 1, Filip Jorgensen produced a brilliant performance, making five crucial saves, including a stunning save from Florian Sotoca to secure Strasbourgโs 2-1 victory.
And it was this save that caught the eye of the official Strasbourg X account.
โWe regret to inform the rest of @Ligue1\_ENG that the save of the season contest has ended โ ๐ ๐ข๐ฅ๐ข๐ฉ ๐รธ๐ซ๐ ๐๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ง is the winner!โ
Since joining RC Strasbourg on a season-long loan, Filip Jorgensen has started both of Strasbourgโs opening Ligue 1 matches, playing the full 180 minutes.
Across those two starts, he has faced 14 shots on target and made nine total saves (four against Marseille and five against RC Lens) for a 64.3% save rate. While he has conceded five goals, four during an opening away defeat at Marseille followed by one in a 2-1 win against Lens, he remains without a clean sheet.
Additionally, Jorgensen has completed 66 out of 86 passes (76.7% accuracy), recorded four clearances, and received one yellow card.
