Transfer News: Chelsea Getting Closer to the Nkunku Deal

Christopher Nkunku, a forward for RB Leipzig, and Chelsea are close to agreeing on his transfer.
The French professional footballer signed a two-year deal with the Bundesliga club earlier this year, extending his stay there until 2026.

The 24-year-old striker had a significant release clause of 16 million euros attached by the German club RB Leipzig.
Sky Sports reports that the London club is willing to pay more than the striker’s release clause in order to acquire the player as soon as the next summer transfer window opens.
Sky Sports says that nothing has been signed yet, and he will need time to think about his options given the interest from other top clubs.
