Strasbourg narrowly escaped in Ligue 1 last year and was recently bought by Chelsea and its president Todd Boehly. Patrick Vieira has taken the team in hand and the Strasbourg supporters can now breathe. Well not yet. Because the Alsatian club has young and promising talents. If for the moment Marc Keller has said no to Lens for Habib Diarra, another great hope of the club is being courted.

According to our information, Burnley, freshly promoted to the Premier League and managed by Vincent Kompany, has set his sights on Ismaël Doukouré. This 19-year-old central defender who arrived in winter 2022 from Valenciennes is an international U20 tricolor and started last season in Ligue 1 with Strasbourg (28 matches – 1 goal). His profile is very appealing to the Belgian technician who would see himself training the No. 29 from Strasbourg to Burnley next year.
