Emanuel Emegha open to joining Newcastle despite interest from Chelsea

Emanuel Emegha (22) may be on his way out of RC Strasbourg Alsace this summer, with growing interest from Premier League clubs, as reported by *L’Équipe*.

Despite Strasbourg pushing for a Champions League spot and currently sitting sixth in Ligue 1, they face the risk of losing key players. Emegha, who has netted 13 league goals this season, has been a standout performer.

Newcastle United have shown serious interest in the Dutch striker as they prepare for a possible exit of Alexander Isak. Emegha is reportedly open to the move, making him a strong candidate to lead their line. Chelsea are also in the mix, with shared BlueCo ownership with Strasbourg, and have already presented Emegha with a long-term career plan.

Another potential departure is Dilane Bakwa (22). Strasbourg anticipated his exit by securing Valentín Barco and Samuel Amo-Ameyaw on loan with obligation-to-buy clauses back in January.

Eintracht Frankfurt are currently leading the chase for Bakwa and may offer around €30 million excluding bonuses. Additionally, unnamed top-tier Italian clubs are also believed to be interested in signing the winger.
