RB Leipzig manager Marco Rose and attacking midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai have commented on Christopher Nkunku amid increased Chelsea transfer speculation with the latter sending the Frenchman a clear message in the process ahead of their Champions League tie against Celtic - while Blues boss Graham Potter is refusing to comment on the matter.
Having spent £270million in the summer, one may have assumed that new owner and interim sporting director Todd Boehly would have slowed down in the aftermath, but the preparations for the future have continued at high speed.
As well as ramping up their search for a new sporting director, putting the works in place to solve the long-term attacking issues are active. The Blues have reached a pre-contract agreement with Leipzig star Nkunku.
