Tottenham Hotspur line up the surprising moves of Chelsea attacker Christopher Nukank.
The 27-year-old will have to leave Chelsea to play regularly, and Tottenham will be willing to offer him an exit route. According to Fichajes, Chelsea will be willing to send players out on loan with the option to buy. If they can get the deal done, it would be a Tottenham bargain acquisition.
Nkunku is also linked to his return to Germany.
Spurs can use Christopher Nukank
They need more quality in the last third, and French International is versatile enough to slot into multiple offensive roles. He adds goals and creativity to the aspects. It is still unclear how things will develop over the next few weeks. Nkunku scored 15 goals and scored five assists last season.
Tottenham has recently missed multiple attack targets like Ebeki Eze and needs to improve in that area of the pitch. French International has the quality and experience that will help them improve. Tottenham has the finances to close the transaction, and they should be able to convince players as well. They have ambitious projects and quality teams. They can offer him Champions League football and players may be drawn to the idea of joining them.
Nkunku requires game time
With the World Cup held in 2026, Nkunku will need to play regularly to solidify his position in the French national team. Tottenham can provide him with the platform he needs now. They were able to win the UEFA Europa League last season, making it an attractive destination for players this summer. It will be interesting to see if they can now negotiate a deal with their rivals.
Chelsea aims to get rid of players as quickly as possible. He is not an important option for them in the future, and they are already improving their attacking units with multiple signatures. The 27-year-old has fallen further down the pecking order, and it makes no sense for Chelsea to hold him. Players may also be able to use bargains.
