Who is Satpaev: doubts arise in London regarding the transfer value of the Kazakh player.

The Almaty "Kairat" footballer Dastan Satpaev, who will join London’s "Chelsea" in the summer of 2026, has received a list of non-sporting advantages that this transfer will bring him, reports Caravan.kz.

The portal Thechelseachronicle dedicated an article to the Kazakhstani football player. After recalling his performance with "Kairat," "Kairat-Jas," and the Kazakhstan U17 national team, the portal shifted focus to the off-pitch aspects of Satpaev's transfer to "Chelsea."

“The price of Satpaev has not yet been determined by any major transfer websites. What we do know is that "Chelsea" has agreed to pay £3.4 million for his services, according to Fabrizio Romano. This might seem like a strange fee for a 16-year-old with limited football experience, but it could turn out to be an absolutely beneficial deal if he develops into a Premier League-level player,” the portal noted.

It is known that Satpaev will move to "Stamford Bridge" on a five-year contract with the possibility of an additional season in the summer of 2026 when he turns 18. Experts from the portal recommend that he prepare himself mentally for the popularity on social media.

“You can find Satpaev on Instagram under the username @d.satpayev. He has over 9,500 followers, and this number will significantly increase when he joins the English Premier League,” the portal observed.
