Chelsea announcement made OFFICIALLY confirming Frenchmans summer move

Mathis Amougou has left CHELSEA and completed a permanent transfer to Ligue 1 club RC Strasbourg, the Blues have now announced on the club website as they decided to let the lad leave the club.

The Blues posted on the club website: ‘The France Under-20 international joined the Blues from Saint-Etienne in January and made his Premier League debut against Southampton the following month.

‘Amougou featured in our Conference League campaign and was part of the matchday squad for our triumph over Real Betis in the final in Wroclaw.

‘We wish Mathis every success as he begins a new chapter in his career.’

He will hope to fill the hole in the Strasbourg midfield left by Andrey Santos – who has returned from his loan to Chelsea – and Habib Diarra, who has made a big money move to Sunderland.

An official fee has now been announced, but it is suspected it will be almost exactly the same as the £12.5m we paid for Amougou 6 months ago.

Mathis Amougou will certainly be very happy about this move as he will hopefully get more of a chance than he has been at the club, it is the best thing for the lad to do and the right thing for CHELSEA to let him leave.

It is a shame that he never fulfilled his real potential here at the club, but we do wish him all the best of luck at Strasbourg and hope that he is able to make a name for himself in the game.
