Five of the best to play for Chelsea and Marseille

Over the years, Chelsea and Marseille have engaged in much transfer activity, with a number of players leaving the French club, to move to West London and sign for Chelsea.

There are players who have played for Marseille before or after their respective spells at Chelsea. Players such as Loic Remy and Lassana Diarra have played for both sides, but unfortunately, miss out on this list.

There could soon be another player that has played for both Marseille and Chelsea. According to various reports, Belgian striker Michy Batshuayi is set to join Chelsea.

The current Marseille forward looks set to become Antonio Conte’s first signing as Chelsea manager. Batshuayi will join a number of players who have played their football for both sides.

Due to Batshuayi’s reported imminent transfer, we take a look at five players who have played for both Chelsea and for Marseille and see how their careers fared in France and England respectively.
