Arsenal Plans Bold Move for £52M-Rated Chelsea Outcast Amid Bayern Munich, PSG Links | OneFootball

Paris Saint-Germain considered signing Christopher Nkunku during the winter transfer window but ultimately decided against making a move. Although Nkunku stayed at Chelsea, speculation is growing that he could be on the move this summer.

Nkunku, who joined Chelsea from RB Leipzig in 2023 for £52 million, has struggled with injuries and fierce competition for a regular spot in the starting XI, leading to questions about his long-term future at Stamford Bridge.

Journalist Ben Jacobs previously reported that PSG explored the possibility of bringing Nkunku back, though no formal offer was made.

Bayern Munich also passed on pursuing him in January, but Sport Bild’s Christian Falk suggests that the German club may revisit their interest later this year.
