It sounds as if Malang Sarr’s move on loan to Monaco is soon to be confirmed.
The Chelsea defender is no longer required at Stamford Bridge this season after the signing of Marc Cucurella from Brighton ensured left-sided cover for Thomas Tuchel’s squad.
It has been widely reported that Sarr will move to Monaco for an initial loan fee of £600k, with an obligation to buy the player, subject to him meeting appearances criteria, for around £10m.
