Christopher Nkunku to Chelsea

[dan_cfc]

Looks a class player I know people have reservations another coming from the Bundesliga but his talent is clear, far better technically than Werner.

Also liked the look of Leao last night gives off Thierry Henry vibes for me, but can see us being put off by his lack of pressing and attitude at times when he was standing still.

I think he has Electric pace, when I’ve seen him before

You can notice pretty fast how deep they defend and how much space they have when they scored, those counter-attacks happen for us nearly as often.

With that said it's also obvious that he is a good player, the question is where would he fit best for us?

But he is technically better than Werner and he has more vision and is a more creative player, he can also give a defense splitting pass. He can decide a game on his own with one brilliant action.

Wow he has everything in his gsme that Mbappe has, such a good footballer as well, massive game IQ for his age

Hmm, except the one thing that make mbappe so terrifying.

I like Nkunku, which is just as well since I think it can only mean one thing if the claims of a medical having been completed are true.

If the deal is not to be sealed until summer 2023 then any medical the player passed in summer 2022 will no longer be valid and would therefore have to be re-done. That would make the rumoured medical illogical since it makes no sense to carry out a pointless medical. The only way a medical would have been necessary is if a formal arrangement was agreed and signed within the validity of that medical.

If anyone knows why my logic might be faulty here then I'd welcome a correction but, otherwise, I'm sticking to my belief that Nkunku is already a Chelsea player from 2023.

I hope we can get this deal done.

Looks a really good player, good finisher, good hold up play as well.

Touch and control is way ahead of Werner so that wouldn’t be a problem I feel.

#Chelsea and RB Leipzig should sign an agreement for the transfer of Christopher Nkunku before the World Cup, with the striker set to agree a five-year contract. Josko Gvardiol is expected to follow him to Stamford Bridge.

If it's happening I don't think any pre-contract agreement will be announced before the January transfer window.

In a different way. Nkunku's basic technical levels look better than Timo's looked before joining.

Chelsea are close to reach an agreement with RB Leipzig for Christopher Nkunku. The player is expected to join the Blues in January for a deal worth €75m + bonuses.

I assume that is January with a loan back for the season?

They are second in their CL group with every chances of qualifying so why would they let him go in Jan?

Yeah similar to Pulisic type of deal. 

[Luca Vialli]

Can we get Gvardiol too please!

Either him or Hakimi, I'm not greedy [wink]

Another one moving glacially, going by the last time you posted about this back on October 12. Aren't Barca interested at all

[Sconnie Blue]

All in all, it is a player I am very excited about. 

That being said, we need massive surgery in CM. Above anything else imo. 

[azpi28]

another good game 

[PhilH930]

Would be a great signing - something special about him.  

[icecoolguy22]

Class player, can't wait to get him on board.

[Gol15]

Looks like he'll be perfect for the PL.
