More for Chelsea Fans....

Nkunku, whose Chelsea contract starts on 1 July, won three Ligue 1 titles and two French Cups during four years at Paris St-Germain before ing Leipzig in 2019.

He was named Bundesliga player of the season and German PFA player of the season in 2021-22 after scoring 20 goals and contributing 15 assists in the league.

Nkunku scored in the final of the German Cup this month as Leipzig won the competition for the second successive year. They finished third in the Bundesliga last season.

Nkunku made his debut last year but missed the World Cup campaign because of a leg injury.

Laurence Stewart and Paul Winstanley, Chelsea's co-sporting directors, said: "Christopher has proved himself one of the standout attacking players in European football over the past two seasons and will add quality, creativity and versatility to our squad."

Chaaài this young talented player has decided to waste his career just for £60m in Chelsea. He should have looked forward to other better clubs like Arsenal

Another quality player added to Stamford Bridge... But, will he deliver??! tongue

It would be great to see the top 4 teams putting one another on edge from the start to the end of the season!

Enough of the one or two-horse race these days!

Arsenal should not sleep on the purchase of Declan Rice!

I know Man United will end up spending money meant for 2 or 3 quality players on a single media hype towards the end of the transfer window, as usual! tongue

shocked

Nice deal from Chelsea. Fantastic player.

Meanwhile, this transfer keeps revealing the foolly of England. McAllister, a South American world cup winner who is technically gifted, is worth 35m. An English energetic midfielder, with just one year on his contract, is worth 100m+ (Rice).

A 30 year old English striker with just one year on his contract is worth 100m+. For all his talent, at 30 years and with one year on his contract, Kane should be worth around 60 to 70m. Mason Mount is said to be worth 75m with just a one year contract left. These things are incomprehensible.

Liverpool fans should be grateful to Kloop for curing them of the English madness. Andy Carroll comes to mind...
