Christopher Nkunku has had secret Chelsea medical' before a possible £52.8m move in 2023
Daily MailChelsea will continue their attempts to finalise a move for Christopher Nkunku after stealing a march on their rivals in the race to sign the RB Leipzig forward. Chelsea's groundwork on a deal to land Nkunku next summer is already well underway including the French forward undergoing medical checks in Germany with a Blues orthopedist present. Versatile forward Nkunku, 24, enjoyed a breakout campaign last season, scoring 35 goals and setting up 20 more in 52 appearances in all competitions during a sensational term for RB Leipzig on his way to being named Bundesliga player of the year. Christopher Nkunku looks set for a move to Chelsea next season after a 'secret medical' exam The Frenchman managed 55 goal contributions in just 52 games in all competitions last season That form saw Nkunku force his way into the senior France squad for the first time and made him a target for a number of Europe's biggest clubs, with Real Madrid joining the Premier League's elite in admiring Nkunku. Todd Boehly already broke the Premier League's record spend in one window last summer A move would require that non-negotiable release clause payment of £52.8m to be triggered, and with the player under contract until 2026, there is no rush for Leipzig to sell a player who's stock will surely only increase.
