Real Sociedad agrees loan move for Mamadou Sarr from Chelsea
Summary

Real Sociedad has reached an agreement with Chelsea for the loan of Mamadou Sarr, a 20-year-old Senegalese centre-back. The loan deal, reported by Foot Mercato, does not include an option to buy. Sarr previously joined Chelsea from RC Strasbourg for €14 million but had limited appearances with the Blues, featuring just seven times since then. His departure follows Chelsea's acquisition of Maxence Lacroix from Crystal Palace, and Xabi Alonso, a former midfielder for Real Sociedad, has played a key role in this transfer.
