Chelsea striker Deivid Washington, 21, is once again in talks to leave Chelsea for RC Strasbourg, a club also owned by the BlueCo group. A similar transfer collapsed in August 2024 due to multi-club ownership regulations, with the deal scrapped during the medical stage. Washington joined Chelsea from Santos in August 2023 for around 16 million euros plus 4 million euros in add-ons, making only three senior appearances without scoring. After the failed deal, he was loaned back to Santos for 2025, managing 17 appearances and one goal in Série A, with his market value falling to approximately 3 million euros. A significantly reduced fee could make the deal easier to justify as fair value under current regulations.
