Chelsea’s transfer plans have taken another hit with reports suggesting Presnel Kimpembe is set to stay at Paris Saint-Germain this summer.
The PSG central defender has been heavily linked with a move to Stamford Bridge for much of this summer, with the Blues in desperate need for defensive reinforcements. Thomas Tuchel has already seen Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen leave the club, whilst the futures of Marcos Alonso and Cesar Azpilicueta are uncertain.
The club’s new owner Todd Boehly has taken on the responsibility of sanctioning transfers after allowing Marina Granovskaia to leave following his consortium’s takeover. The American is desperate to make a big splash in the market and has even held meetings in regards to signing Cristiano Ronaldo.
