Chelsea are ready to send David Datro Fofana on-loan to new French satellite club Strasbourg.

Chelsea's umbrella company BlueCo completed the purchase of majority control in Strasbourg on Thursday.

And a first player to move on-loan to the Ligue Une outfit is likely to be Fofana.

The striker was signed by Chelsea in January from Molde, but struggled for minutes in the second-half of last season.

L'Equipe says Fofana could make the move to Strasbourg, though he has other options.
