2 w. ago RB Leipzig step up Nkunku interest to provide Chelsea boost for potential signings

Nkunku’s former club are looking into permanent dealLondon club unwilling to pay £50m for GarnachoRB Leipzig have stepped up attempts to sign Christopher Nkunku on a permanent deal, potentially paving the way for Chelsea to accelerate their search for attacking reinforcements.Chelsea need sales before pressing ahead with moves for Leipzig’s Xavi Simons and Manchester United’s Alejandro Garnacho but their hopes of shifting Nkunku appeared to have hit a dead end when Bayern Munich’s move for the forward stalled. Bayern had an offer of a loan with an option to buy for the Frenchman rejected over the weekend and have so far shown little inclination of wanting to pay enough to buy him.

3 w. ago Football transfer rumours: Spurs in for Savinho? Magassa off to Forest?

Today’s rumours are awaiting the building emailIt’s been at least 13 minutes since Chelsea bought a player they don’t need and withdrawal symptoms are biting hard. As such, they’ve begun talks with RB Leipzig, the idea being to swap Christopher Nkunku and cash for Xavi Simons. Though presumably the deal wouldn’t actually be a swap, rather 793 separate deals payable over 32,321 years with the players valued at knockdown prices of £9065m and £19324m, respectively.Nor will that be it. No squad is complete without someone who scores few and creates fewer, so Enzo Maresca is also keen to add Alejandro Garnacho to his squad. Leipzig, meanwhile, would like to acquire Harvey Elliott from Liverpool, who reportedly rejected a move to Nottingham Forest as he does not think they suit his playing style – they must’ve expected him to start rather than hang about as sub.
