Transfer: Several clubs line up to sign Chelsea’s Nkunku as Ten Hag blocks Xhaka’s exit
Chelsea forward Christopher Nkunku will leave Stamford Bridge this summer.
Football transfer expert Fabrizio Romano reports that the Frenchman’s exit from Chelsea this summer remains almost guaranteed.
In his two seasons at the club, the Frenchman has failed to live up to the expectations of the Blues supporters.
“Nkunku wants to play more with several top clubs keen in the background; Chelsea are open to selling him since January,” Romano wrote on X.
He added that more contacts for the player will follow soon.
Meanwhile, Napoli have sent a new formal bid for Dan Ndoye to Bologna worth €9m loan fee, €26m obligation to buy, plus €5m add-ons.
Nottingham Forest already offered a €30m fee after Ndoye agreed personal terms with the Premier League side, according to Romano.
In another development, Bayer Leverkusen boss, Erik ten Hag, has insisted that midfielder Granit Xhaka is not for sale.
“The agent of Xhaka can say whatever he wants, but this club has already let three important players go, and we won’t let any more go.
“Granit is a leader, he still has three years left on his contract here,” told RP.
