RB Leipzig step up Nkunku interest to provide Chelsea boost for potential signings

RB Leipzig have intensified their efforts to sign Christopher Nkunku on a permanent basis, potentially paving the way for Chelsea to accelerate their pursuit of attacking reinforcements. Chelsea are unwilling to pay the £50 million fee demanded by Manchester United for Alejandro Garnacho, and are looking to offload Nkunku before making further signings. Bayern Munich's move for Nkunku has stalled, as they have been unable to meet Leipzig's asking price for the French forward. Chelsea's preference is to sell Nkunku outright rather than loan him out, as he is not part of their long-term plans.
