Sevilla and their star centre-back Jules Kounde are both said to be 'desperate' for an immediate transfer solution as Thomas Tuchel's Reece James plan confirms Chelsea's transfer U-turn.
Chelsea's defensive re-shape is starting to take some form of shape now with the likes of Premier League-proven Nathan Ake, Matthijs de Ligt and Milan Skriniar the three prime candidates to join this summer. It is understood that two new centre-halves are going to be signed by Todd Boehly in his first summer, so you would assume that two of the aforementioned options will be donning Chelsea blue in 2022/23.
Currently, Ake and De Ligt look the most likely to happen but with talks opened for Skriniar too, it's anyone's game at the moment as Boehly looks to make a move on his £200million transfer promise made to first-team manager Tuchel ahead of pre-season starting this weekend. But what does this all mean for Sevilla's Kounde who was destined to seal his dream move to the Premier League after major transfer disappointment last season?
