Manchester United have reportedly begun talks with Chelsea over the transfer of forward Christopher Nkunku. The French international is under contract until 2029, but has been linked with a move away after struggling for game time under Enzo Maresca.
The 27-year-old joined the London club from RB Leipzig in 2023 for a £52million fee. However, form and fitness issues have hindered his time at Stamford Bridge, scoring just 17 times in 57 club appearances. The arrival of Liam Delap from Ipswich has seen the star fall further down the pecking order in the club's attacking ranks, and he's been deployed on the bench in both of their Club World Cup games so far.
The Red Devils have already tried to sign Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford this summer. Their initial £55million bid for the Cameroon international was turned down, and an increased offer is expected this week.
