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.
