Christopher Nkunku offers Graham Potter £53m solution to Brighton misery amid fresh Chelsea bid

Chelsea target Christopher Nkunku scored his 12th goal of the season as RB Leipzig defeated Bayer Leverkusen 2-0 in the Bundesliga. The 24-year-old impressed for the German side and, once again, showcased his natural goalscoring ability.

Meanwhile, the Blues lost 4-1 to Brighton as Graham Potter's nine-game unbeaten streak came to an end against his former side. And, while Roberto De Zerbi's side uncovered Chelsea's defensive frailties at the Amex Stadium, the west Londoners could have also done with the attacking nouse of Nkunku.

So, it seems that the France international's potential move to Stamford Bridge can't come quickly enough. Nkunku was heavily linked with a move to Chelsea in the summer, but a move failed to materialise.
