Benjamin Sesko's 2023 move to RB Leipzig has seemingly helped Chelsea secure their man, with Christopher Nkunku move to Stamford Bridge now looking likely.
Sesko, 19, will move to the Bundesliga for the start of the 23/24 campaign, with Leipzig already one step ahead by securing a replacement for Nkunku's switch.
Chelsea are said to have completed part of Nkunku's medical ahead of his summer move to the Premier League, seeing off stiff competition from other European powerhouses along the way.
