Christopher Nkunku makes his transfer intentions very clear amid Man Utd's interest

RB Leipzig star Christopher Nkunku has put an end to talks he will leave Germany this summer amid links to Manchester United.

The France international reportedly had a clause in his contract that would allow him to leave the Bundesliga side next year, suggesting he could complete a potential move this summer. Erik ten Hag's side were among the clubs interested in the former Paris Saint-Germain forward, with Real Madrid also linked.

However, Nkunku last month put pen to paper on a lengthy contract extension that will keep him at the Bundesliga club until 2026 after a 2021/22 campaign that saw the 24-year-old score 35 goals in 52 appearances in all competitions, helping Leipzig reach the semi-finals of the Europa League and finish fourth in the Bundesliga, as well as winning the DFB Pokal.
