Chelsea defender Malang Sarr has joined AS Monaco on a season-long loan, the club have confirmed.

A club statement read: "The French defender returns to his homeland for the coming campaign, where he began his career just a little further along the coast with Nice, becoming a first-team regular at the age of 17 before joining Chelsea in 2020 and signing a five-year contract with the club."

Sarr appeared 8 times for the Blues in the 2021/22 Premier League season and will now be looking to get more game time in Ligue 1.

We wish him all the best!
