A potential Nkunku move could serve as a key bargaining chip in Leipzig’s negotiations with Chelsea over Xavi Simons. The Netherlands international has long agreed personal terms with the Premier League side and is pushing for a transfer. However, the Blues must first offload players like Nkunku before making an official offer, as the Bundesliga side remain adamant on their asking price of €70 million (£60m/$82m).
AFPWHAT NEXT?
Nkunku was inching closer to a move to Bayern Munich, but the deal is on the verge of a collapse after Chelsea refused to send the forward on loan. The Club World Cup winners value Nkunku — on a contract until 2029 — at €50m (£43m/$58m). The player is also eager to make a permanent switch in order to put an end to his misery at Stamford Bridge. It also remains to be seen what happens to Chelsea's pursuit of Alejandro Garnacho, with Manchester United slapping a £50m ($68m) price tag on the Argentine.
