Chelsea’s £52M-Rated Star Seeks January Exit Amid Man Utd, PSG Transfer Links

Christopher Nkunku has caught the attention of both Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain, with reports suggesting that his time at Chelsea, who signed him for £52 million in 2023, could be coming to an end. However, these two clubs aren’t the only ones interested in the 27-year-old.

In November, GOAL reported that Nkunku had been advised to leave Chelsea for Manchester United. Despite his frustration over limited game time, The Athletic added that Nkunku isn’t actively seeking a transfer at this point.

Last month, TBRFootball reported that PSG are still interested in bringing Nkunku back to the Parc des Princes. While the French forward has realized he’s not Enzo Maresca’s first choice at Chelsea, he hasn’t given up on his Blues career and continues to fight for a place in the team.

With the January transfer window just around the corner, Nkunku may have a change of heart.

Will Christopher Nkunku leave Chelsea in January?

TBR Football correspondent Graeme Bailey reports that Nkunku is set to leave Chelsea in January after struggling to secure a spot in the first team. His representatives are now exploring potential options for the French forward.

Nkunku has been determined to fight for his place, but it’s become evident that the 27-year-old is not a regular under Maresca.

The £52 million signing started the season opener against Manchester City, but since then, he’s only been included in the starting lineup once more – in the Premier League match at Southampton.
