Emegha Gone, Panichelli Ready for Strasbourg Stardom

RC Strasbourg Alsace will see their club captain, Emanuel Emegha, depart at the end of the season. Emegha's transfer to partner club Chelsea was confirmed in September, a decision that initially frustrated the team's supporters.

Fortunately for Strasbourg, an in-house successor has emerged in Argentine attacker Joaquín Panichelli. Even with Emegha still present, Panichelli has been the most impactful player for Le Racing this season.

Panichelli has already netted 11 goals in his first Ligue 1 campaign, placing him just one goal behind the league's current top scorer. This impressive performance solidifies his position as Emegha's natural successor.
