Chelsea Target Lyon’s Rising Star Enzo Molebe

Chelsea Target Lyon’s Rising Star Enzo Molebe

Premier League giants Chelsea are reportedly keeping a close eye on Enzo Molebe, a highly-rated 17-year-old prospect from Lyon’s renowned youth academy. Molebe, considered one of the most promising strikers born in 2007, has already made his senior debut for Lyon this season.

Despite limited first-team experience, Molebe has impressed in his brief appearances. He came off the bench in Lyon’s Coupe de France match against lower-league opposition and in a Europa League victory over Qarabag. The young forward is currently under contract with Lyon until 2027.

However, Molebe’s future at Lyon remains uncertain as the February 3rd transfer deadline approaches. Chelsea have reportedly shown concrete interest in the talented teenager and may intensify their pursuit in the coming days. If signed, the London club could potentially loan Molebe to their partner club RC Strasbourg in Ligue 1 to continue his development.

This potential move highlights Chelsea’s ongoing strategy of identifying and acquiring top young talents from across Europe. The club sees Molebe as a promising prospect who could become a valuable asset in the future.
