Barcelona summer-signing Jules Kounde caused quite the stir on social media when he uploaded a controversial post to Instagram Stories laughing at the expense of Chelsea.
The France international was relentlessly linked with a Stamford Bridge switch all summer and at one stage the deal appeared to be done as Kounde said his goodbyes to his Sevilla teammates. However, late intervention from fellow Spanish side Barcelona completely changed the landscape of any exit as Kounde's head was turned by the bright lights of the Camp Nou.
Initially, in the aftermath of his arrival at Barcelona, there were concerns the club would fail to register Kounde with La Liga due to the perilous financial position the Catalan giants currently find themselves in. With that being said, the defender was one of many high-profile additions made by those at the top of the Barcelona hierarchy this summer.
