BlueCo-owned Racing Club de Strasbourg have signed Chelsea FC goalkeeper Djordje Petrovic (24) on loan, both clubs have announced. Since the Chelsea owners completed the takeover of the Ligue 1 club, there has been plenty of transfer activity between the two clubs. Last season, Ângelo Gabriel and Andrey Santos both joined Les Alsaciens on loan. The latter, who only joined in January, has seen his loan extended.
He has since been joined by Caleb Wiley, a summer signing from the MLS that subsequently shipped straight out to France, whilst Diego Moreira, who spent part of last season on loan at Olympique Lyonnais, has joined RCSA on a permanent deal and Deivid Washington should do the same, in a club-record €21m deal. Chelsea were still permitted to send one more player on loan to Strasbourg and they have done so with Petrovic. The goalkeeper made 31 appearances, including a start in the Carabao Cup final which the Blues lost to Liverpool after extra time.
