Christopher Nkunku’s uncertain Chelsea future has taken another twist as Aston Villa explore the chance to sign the French forward.
Reports from Fabrizio Romano suggest Villa have already made contact to understand the conditions of a potential deal.
Nkunku, who joined Chelsea with high expectations, is open to leaving before the close of the transfer window. His time in London has been hampered by injuries and inconsistency, and a move could offer him the fresh start he craves.
While Bayern Munich and RB Leipzig remain keen on the player, both German clubs are pushing for a loan option. That path does not suit Chelsea or Nkunku, who are seeking something more concrete. Aston Villa’s inquiry signals a new twist in the saga, though the Midlands club have yet to make a decision on whether to push forward.
Nkunku’s talent is clear, but his future remains unsettled. With the transfer window entering its final stretch, the coming days will be crucial for his next chapter.
