Chelsea are ready to send Angelo Gabriel on-loan to French partners Strasbourg.

L'Equipe says Strasbourg are expecting to welcome the teen for the new Ligue 1 season.

Chelsea's umbrella company BlueCo bought Strasbourg at the end of the last campaign.

Gabriel, 18, signed for Chelsea from Santos and has taken part in their full preseason programme.

However, he is now set to make the move to France to launch his new European career.
