Sarr's journey to Chelsea hasn't been straightforward. While he was initially considered for France's U21 squad and later called up for the Maurice Revello Tournament, his club, Strasbourg, decided to retain him. Now, that club is effectively Chelsea, due to the BlueCo group's ownership of both clubs. The transfer fee is rumored to be around €10 million, a significant investment in the young talent.
