Nkunku €35m asking price set as Roma, Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig circle
Chelsea are open to selling Christopher Nkunku during the upcoming transfer window and have placed a €35m valuation on the French forward. Roma, Borussia Dortmund, and RB Leipzig — where Nkunku previously starred before his €60m move to Stamford Bridge — have all expressed interest. The 27-year-old has struggled for consistent minutes at Chelsea and is now seen as surplus to requirements, opening the door for a return to the Bundesliga or a move to Serie A. The relatively modest asking price reflects his reduced role and could spark a bidding war between the three suitors.
Read the full story at football-italia.netNkunku's availability at €35m represents a significant discount on what Chelsea paid RB Leipzig in 2023, signaling their willingness to cut losses on a player who hasn't delivered as expected in the Premier League. For Roma, he would add proven goal-scoring quality in Serie A; for Dortmund, a dynamic attacking option; and for Leipzig, a romantic homecoming with a player they know inside-out. Chelsea's need to recoup funds and comply with PSR/Fair Play considerations likely accelerates any deal.
