Man United have been offered a chance to sign Chelsea star on discount. The player is desperate to move away and the Blues are ready to let him leave. The player has so far picked 20 goal involvements in 2024/25 season.
The star in question here is Christopher Nkunku. He is 27 year old French football player who can play in variety of positions. Chelsea signed him in summer 2023 from Leipzig. He was superb for Bundesliga club due to which the Blues splashed £52 million on him.
However, Nkunku’s deal has not went as per plans. He was injured for most of the 2023/24 season. In this time, Cole Palmer grabbed his place and has now became the main man for the Blues. Hence, Nkunku has struggled to play regularly this season despite being fully fit.
Nkunku was keen to leave Chelsea in the January window itself. But, no club was ready to meet Chelsea’s valuation. The Blues then opted to keep him until the end of the season. But, the 27 year old has no intention to stay now and Chelsea are also ready to let him leave.
The Blues have signed Liam Delap, Joao Pedro and Jamie Gittens. They will soon sign some top defenders. Hence, they need to raise funds as soon as possible. They have already been fined by UEFA and soon can be fined by Premier League for breaching PSR.
Man United offered Nkunku on discount
Nkunku has been linked with a move to Man United. He is open to join Chelsea’s rivals this summer. The Red Devils are in need of attacking players as they want a reshuffle in final third. Now as per The Mirror, they have been offered a chance to sign Nkunku on discount.
Chelsea are aware that they will not be able to recoup £52 million they spent on Nkunku. Hence, they are ready to cash-in on him in discount. As per the reports, they are ready to sell Nkunku for £35 million which will be viewed as an important boost by Man United.
