Malang Sarr joins Lens after Chelsea release

Former Chelsea defender, Malang Sarr, has signed as a new RC Lens player.

According to a statement obtained from Fabrizio Romano’s X handle on Friday, Sarr
agreed terms with Lens after Chelsea released him with a year left on his contract.

After the mutual termination of his Chelsea deal, Sarr will not receive a pay-off for the final year of his wages.

He has completed a medical ahead of his move to Lens and his arrival is expected to be confirmed soon.

After joining Chelsea from Nice four years ago, he spent the 2020-21 campaign on loan at Porto

The defender made 22 appearances on a season-long loan spell at Monaco in 2022-23 and spent last season at Chelsea, but did not feature throughout the season under Mauricio Pochettino.

Sarr began his career at Nice, where he debuted as a 17-year-old and made 119 first-team appearances before joining Chelsea as a free agent.

The 25-year-old represented France up to Under-21 level but is also eligible to play for Senegal.
