One Chelsea star is looked upon by German giants. They were keen to sign him in January itself but failed to do so. But, they can verg likely achieve their goals in the upcoming summer window.
Who is the Chelsea star in question?
The star in question here is Christopher Nkunku. The 27 year old was keen to leave the West London club in summer. After a difficult debut season, the Frenchman entered this season with full fitness. But, he was not the first choice player.
Enzo Maresca preferred other players over Nkunku. In addition, he used him as striker in order to give him some minutes. Nkunku responded well and scored regularly along with assisting. But, he was still not given enough chances.
This forced Nkunku to ask for a move away from Stamford Bridge. He was heavily linked with Bayern Munich. The German giants were keen to sign him but failed to do so due to Chelsea’s demands. The West London club demanded around €70 million for Nkunku.
Chelsea were open to let Nkunku leave but were keen to sign his replacement first. They wanted sign Mathys Tel from Bayern but the player rejected the offer. This forced Nkunku to stay at Chelsea but he is still keen to move away in summer.
Bayern Munich keen to sign Nkunku & Gittens
According to Sky Germany, Bayern have interest in both Nkunku and Gittens. Gittens is also looked upon by Chelsea and he may require around €100 million. The report adds that Bayern will sell some of their exisiting stars to raise funds for Nkunku and Gittens.
Chelsea may agree to let Nkunku leave in summer. They will not want to hold the player against his wills. In addition, the West London club will want a natural winger or natural attacker instead of make-shift players.
