Chelsea now appear to have completed the signing of Christopher Nkunku from RB Leipzig, with the France international expected to join in time for the 2023/24 season.
The Blues have been long-term admirers of the 25-year-old as football.london reported back in May for the first time. Now, almost seven months after, Chelsea look to have got their man with a deal all agreed with Leipzig.
The club tried signing Nkunku over the summer transfer window but he ended up signing a contract extension with Leipzig. However, that didn't put Chelsea off and their persistence has now paid dividends.
