When the news broke back in October that Christopher Nkunku had signed a pre-contract agreement to join Chelsea next summer, a number of supporters said the same thing.
"Chelsea bought Timo Werner from Leipzig as well you know. Getting the same vibes with Nkunku," one Twitter user said. Another revealed: "I'm afraid of Timo Werner vibes with this one."
It's true. Chelsea did buy Werner from Leipzig in the summer of 2020. At the time, Blues supporters were exuberant at the prospect of one of the highest-rated attacking talents in Europe leading them to Premier League glory.
