Santos joined Chelsea in January 2023 for £18.5 million from Vasco da Gama but has yet to make his competitive debut for the Blues.
Instead, he has been loaned out to further develop his skills, with his current stint at Strasbourg proving fruitful.
So far, he has made 19 appearances, scoring eight goals and contributing two assists.
Strasbourg authorities are yet to confirm if there are any leads in the ongoing investigation.
