Chelsea have sent a proposal to RB Leipzig star Christopher Nkunku after the Frenchman completed a 'secret' medical ahead of a potential transfer.
Nkunku was heavily linked with a move to Stamford Bridge throughout the summer transfer window before signing a new contract with the Bundesliga outfit which runs until 2026. Leipzig have protected their position in the transfer market and can now demand a significant fee for the French forward with the Blues currently at the front of the queue to sign the 24-year-old next summer.
Todd Boehly will be keen to support new head coach Graham Potter in the upcoming transfer windows as he looks to lower the overall age of the playing squad, and Nkunku is thought to be the priority target to add to Chelsea's attacking options next summer.
