Christopher Nkunku Set to Depart Chelsea After Mixed Seasons
After two seasons at Stamford Bridge, Christopher Nkunku is reportedly considering a move away from Chelsea this summer. The French international, who was signed in 2023 from RB Leipzig for €60 million, was initially seen as the club’s next attacking star. Despite facing injury setbacks, Nkunku has still managed to score an impressive 14 goals this season, making him Chelsea’s second-highest goal scorer. However, with Chelsea failing to qualify for the Champions League once again, Nkunku is now weighing his options for a potential transfer.
Reports suggest that Liverpool has shown interest in the 27-year-old, viewing him as a versatile addition to their evolving front line. Newcastle is also said to be monitoring the situation, while Bayern Munich, a long-time admirer of Nkunku, is keen on securing his services, especially with the possibility of Leroy Sané departing the club.
For Nkunku, playing in the Champions League next season is a top priority, which neither Chelsea nor Newcastle can offer at the moment. As a result, a summer transfer is becoming increasingly likely, with several top European clubs vying for his signature.
