<p>The 21-year-old Dutch forward has emerged as one of Ligue 1’s standout performers this season, and his explosive pace and consistent goalscoring form have caught the attention of Chelsea, according to <a href="https://www.footmercato.net/a2513074494508942629-chelsea-pousse-pour-emmanuel-emegha" target="_blank"><em>Foot Mercato.</em></a><a href="https://www.footmercato.net/a2513074494508942629-chelsea-pousse-pour-emmanuel-emegha" target="_blank"><em></em></a></p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Since making the switch from Austrian side Sturm Graz in the summer of 2023 for a reported €13 million (£11m/$15m), the Dutch striker has found the net 14 times in Ligue 1, playing a pivotal role in Strasbourg’s rise this season. Chelsea have already made contact with Emegha to explore the possibility of a summer switch, and early indications are promising. The player is reportedly enthusiastic about the opportunity to play in the Premier League, a goal he has spoken about previously.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>One of Emegha’s most eye-catching attributes is his sheer pace. The striker has clocked the fastest top speed in Ligue 1 this season, reaching an astonishing 37.7 km/h. To put it in perspective, Tottenham's Micky van de Ven, recorded as the Premier League’s fastest player, hit a top speed of 37.1 km/h — slightly below Emegha’s benchmark. This level of speed, combined with his goalscoring instinct, makes him an attractive prospect for a club aiming to reclaim the Premier League title.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>The summer transfer window promises to be busy at Stamford Bridge, and if negotiations proceed smoothly, Emegha could be one of the first through the door as Chelsea begin reshaping their squad for a stronger title push in 2025.</p>
