Chelsea have suffered a triple transfer blow in the defensive department with Nathan Ake the latest one of the three updates as speculation resumes about Jules Kounde's future.
The Blues really have got their gears in action this week after Raheem Sterling's signing was unveiled in the gleaming LA sunshine on Wednesday afternoon. This is expected to be followed shortly by a Kalidou Koulibaly announcement after a £34million deal had been agreed between the two clubs with the Africa Cup of Nations winner completing his medical in full on Thursday, football.london understands.
While in London and waiting for his official announcement before jetting off to America to join up with his teammates, Nathan Ake and Presnel Kimpembe looked set to follow suit but for one reason or another, this no longer looks likely. This is because as per The Athletic, Ake has mutually agreed with Man City to stay put this summer with Chelsea failing so far to match the asking price of £50million asking price.
