The Bundesliga's player of the season could be making his way to Chelsea this summer. The highly-rated Christopher Nkunku is on the radar for Thomas Tuchel after quite an impressive season with RB Leipzig. The 24-year-old registered 19 goals and 15 assists in 33 appearances in Germany's top flight. Being crowned player of the season is the least of honours that he could have achieved after a difficult season for Leipzig.
Nkunku has found some joy playing as a second striker and an attacking midfielder. His versatility in attack is something to be admired by Tuchel as he begins to play for his dream team for next season. With the imminent arrival of Todd Boehly, the Frenchman should be one of the first signings to get over the line.
But with every good signing, there comes a risk. Chelsea has not had the best luck with their past Leipzig purchases. Any guesses on who I am referring to?
