Chelsea are setting their sights on securing AS Saint-Étienne’s standout midfielder Mathis Amougou, according to reports from RMC Sport, further validated by Foot Mercato.
The Premier League giants, owned by the BlueCo group, are keen to strike a deal for the talented French U20 international.
The ownership group, which also manages RC Strasbourg Alsace, is reportedly prepared to table a €15 million bid to tempt Saint-Étienne into parting with their prized asset. The deal could see Amougou join Chelsea directly or be sent on loan to Strasbourg to continue his development.
Negotiations remain ongoing, and while the specifics of the deal are yet to be finalized, BlueCo’s interest highlights their commitment to investing in young talent.
Amougou has been a key figure for Les Verts this season, earning significant playing time and establishing himself as a regular starter under former head coach Olivier Dall’Oglio. Notably, he has previously attracted attention from Bayer Leverkusen, showcasing the growing demand for his skillset.
