Christopher Nkunku’s Chelsea journey may soon take a dramatic turn, as reports suggest the striker is on the verge of joining Manchester United.
According to Caught Offside, the French forward is being considered in a potential swap deal that could see Alejandro Garnacho heading to Stamford Bridge.
Since his high-profile arrival at Chelsea in 2023, Nkunku’s impact has been hampered by injuries. However, this season has seen the talented attacker remain largely fit, though his playing time under Enzo Maresca has been limited due to tactical incompatibility.
Chelsea has reportedly set a €70 million price tag for Nkunku but might entertain an initial loan with a mandatory purchase clause. Should the deal materialize, Nkunku could prove an invaluable asset to Ruben Amorim’s squad, offering versatility across the front line.
With speculation mounting, Manchester United fans will be eagerly awaiting updates on the potential addition of the dynamic forward to their ranks, as the Premier League giants aim to bolster their attacking options.
