Chelsea of England sister club Strasbourg of France has tabled a €10 million offer for the Nigeria-eligible striker Emmanuel Emegha, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

The Alsatians, who were recently acquired by Chelsea owners BlueCo, are in the market to reinforce their attacking options, with their top scorer last season Habib Diallo now likely to leave amid interest from the Premier League.

Emegha, who scored ten goals in all competitions in his first campaign with the Austrian club last season, notably scored a double against France’s U20 side back in March.

Emegha was born in the Netherlands to a Togolese father and a Nigerian mother and has played for the Dutch junior teams at the international level but is still eligible for Nigeria.
