Chelsea and Christopher Nkunku are both in agreement regarding a permanent transfer away from the club this summer. The French forward has struggled at Stamford Bridge and is inclined to return to the Bundesliga with Bayern Munich. Chelsea desires a permanent exit rather than a loan, which aligns with Nkunku's interests. Ongoing talks between the two clubs indicate Bayern's optimism for a deal. Nkunku, having previously excelled at RB Leipzig, may benefit from returning to Germany, although his role at Bayern is uncertain due to their existing attacking arsenal.
Chelsea has made their position clear to Bayern. They want permanence to any exit, Jacobs said. Nkunku understood to be on the same page. Talks between the clubs ongoing. Bayern still optimistic a deal can be reached. Different formulas being discussed.
Nkunku seems highly unlikely to still be a Chelsea player by the end of the summer, but it seems his future has still not been fully resolved.
The Blues would do well to offload the 27-year-old permanently, as it perhaps makes sense if there are clubs out there unsure about committing to a deal like that now.
Nkunku could do well to return to the Bundesliga, but it's not clear he'd have a key role at Bayern. Vincent Kompany's side already have plenty of attacking players.
