Chelsea goalkeeper Filip Jorgensen has approved a season-long loan to Strasbourg. The 24-year-old has been targeted by the French club's new manager Hugo Oliveira, who wanted a ball-playing goalkeeper after Mike Penders returned to Stamford Bridge. The deal highlights how the two clubs, both part of the Clearlake-Boehly ownership group known as Blue Co, develop players.

Jorgensen is keen to play more regularly after struggling to dislodge Chelsea's first-choice goalkeeper Robert Sanchez. Strasbourg also signed Chelsea academy defender Genesis Antwi, 19, on loan. Among the 14 deals completed between the two clubs are permanent signings of midfielder Valentin Barco, striker Emmanuel Emegha, and defender Mamadou Sarr.

Head coach Liam Rosenior also moved but lasted less than four months, with Xabi Alonso taking over as his permanent successor last month.
