Could Presnal Kimpembe solve Chelsea's issues in the search for a new centre-back? There have been some mixed reviews on this, but it looks like Thomas Tuchel and Thiago Silva would be keen on a reunion with the Frenchman.
Chelsea's interest in french defenders has reached its peak. With the deal on Jules Kounde collapsing, there are still a number of spots to be filled within the Chelsea defence. The departure of Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rudiger, coupled with the predicted exits of Cesar Azpilicueta and Marcos Alonso, has left the Blues in quite a pickle. Fortunately, it looks like Kalidou Koulibaly could be the first defender through the door, with the Napoli defender due for a medical in London today before flying to LA.
I guess it would be criminal, not at least, to explore the possibility of Tuchel being reunited with Kimpembe, right? I wouldn't be against the idea. The defender is capable of replacing Thiago Silva and more than likely capable of creating a positive reputation around Stamford Bridge. Besides, the Blues have three centre-backs to replace.
