The Blues are locked in a battle with Barcelona to sign the Sevilla centre back in what has been a ridiculously dramatic transfer saga, one that stems back from a year ago when Chelsea tried to sign him the first time.

But with Barcelona getting involved now as well, it’s made it even more dramatic and difficult for Chelsea to get this over the line, even though it looked like they had done just that last Friday.

The Guardian’s report says that Chelsea are now close to giving up and walking away from the deal altogether if there are no breakthroughs for them in negotiations soon.

Chelsea are close to giving up and could walk away from negotiations with Sevilla to sign Jules Kounde if there is no breakthrough soon. Another complication is Thomas Tuchel is not entirely convinced about signing Koundé, with doubts over his height. - @JacobSteinberg
