Chelsea have been looking at centre-backs for this summer's transfer window amid the news that both Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rudiger are on their way out of Stamford Bridge.
One target for this position is Sevilla's Jules Kounde, who in recent days has been linked alongside Leicester's Wesley Fofana. The 23-year-old Sevilla defender has impressed in recent years, winning the Europa League in 2020 with the Spanish club as well as earning nine caps for the French national team.
Chelsea will certainly need to sign somebody of Kounde's profile this summer given the clear need for reinforcements in that position. They could face stiff competition for Kounde from Manchester United, who are also in need of a long-term partner for Raphael Varane after struggling with both Victor Lindelof and under-fire skipper Harry Maguire.
