An unsuccessful loan to Chelsea
Bought by the Turinese in January 2022 for 10.10 million euros, Denis Zakaria never managed to win on the other side of the Alps, the native of Genf having played only 15 matches in all competitions, of which only 11 Serie A games, for one goal. In the summer of 2022, Juventus Turin loaned him to English Chelsea, but his move to the Blues was not a great success with 11 meager appearances and 7 small Premier League games played. The Swiss international was only tenured five times in the league before ending the 2022-2023 season away from the London group.
