Chelsea's transfer saga with Bundesliga side RB Leipzig looks almost certain to continue into the 2023 summer transfer window amid Todd Boehly's interest in Josko Gvardiol and Christopher Nkunku.
football.london understands that the Blues were considering making a move for Nkunku in the summer but were put off by the German giants' €100million (£87.6m) asking price. The French forward eventually signed a new deal at the Red Bull Arena, casting doubt over a possible move to west London.
However, it's understood that a pre-contractual agreement is already in place to bring the striker to Stamford Bridge next summer. Recent reports from Fabrizio Romano have backed this up, with suggestions that Chelsea are at the final stage for the deal to be completed.
