Chelsea's latest recruit Emanuel Emegha was left 'devastated' on Sunday after being booed by his own supporters.

The Dutchman, 22, sealed a move to west London from Strasbourg earlier this week in the latest deal struck between the two BlueCo-owned clubs.

With the transfer window already over, Strasbourg captain Emegha will join the Blues next summer rather in January, leaving him free to complete another season in the French top-flight.

However the news of his pending departure was met with a huge wave of backlash by the Ligue 1 club's supporters during their 1-0 victory over Le Havre this afternoon.
