Barcelona are reportedly poised to hijack Chelsea's £55million move for Jules Kounde - just days after it was claimed they missed out on a deal for Kalidou Koulibaly because they had "no money".
The Catalan giants were pipped to a deal for Koulibaly, who became the Blues' second summer capture in a £33m switch earlier this month. Chelsea always appeared to be in pole position to land the coveted defender, with Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis claiming that he had told Koulibaly that he couldn't let him join Barcelona as they had "no money".
But the La Liga outfit are set to go head-to-had against Chelsea again in the race for Kounde, who looks set to finally leave Sevilla this summer.
