June 4 According to the "Team News", Chelsea is interested in Strasbourg defender Ismail Dookure.

Chelsea is accelerating signings before participating in the Club World Cup, hoping to determine the overall lineup for next season as soon as possible. Chelsea fell in love with the 21-year-old Doocure and worked hard to promote the player's transfer work. The French defender currently plays for Strasbourg, and the two clubs, Chelsea and Strasbourg, belong to the same owner, BlueCo Group.

Dukure expressed his hope to transfer to Wolfsburg last summer, but Strasbourg refused to release him. In the past season, Doocure has made 32 appearances, scoring 1 goal and assisting 1, making him one of the best players in Strasbourg. Doocure missed three Ligue 1 games due to injury and helped Strasbourg get the seventh place in Ligue 1 and qualify for the European Union next season.

But Dookure's contract is only one year away, and BlueCo proposed a new plan to Dookure, which is to transfer to Chelsea this summer. BlueCo believes that Dookure, like Saar and Emmega, are players who are enough to gain a foothold in Chelsea. In addition to Chelsea, Doocure has also attracted the attention of some Premier League and Bundesliga clubs.
