Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea are also interested in Monchi, and he has informed Jules Kounde that if Barcelona does not make a proposal soon, he would force a move to England.

Foot Mercato reports that Sevilla is still waiting for Barcelona to make a formal offer for the defender. However, the residents of Camp Nou have urged Kounde to remain put in Catalunya and to turn down any competing offer that comes across his desk.
Now that Robert Lewandowski has completed his €50 million (£42.5 million) transfer from Bayer Munich, Barcelona intends to begin their pursuit of Kounde.While they wait to sell him, the Blaugrana's Andalusian opponents are growing agitated due to the delay in their negotiations with Sevilla.

Kounde's stint at the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan will come to an end this summer, and Sevilla is aware of this and hopes to finalize his exit this week. But among his prospective suitors, Barcelona has long been the €25 million (£21 million) former Bordeaux star's top choice.
Kounde is on the market with Chelsea, and Barcelona is also interested.
If the Blaugrana fail to make the necessary progress in their chase, Chelsea would be his second choice of location.The Stamford Bridge natives have reportedly reached a financial agreement with Sevilla, according to The Sun. The Blues are prepared to spend £51 million plus an additional £4 million in add-ons.

Kounde has also reached a personal agreement with the West London team and could travel with them to the United States for their preseason trip. If Barcelona does not immediately heed Monchi's warning and declare their interest in Kounde's transfer, the move will probably acquire more momentum.
In order for Kounde to relocate to north London in the summer market, Tottenham managing director Fabio Paratici will need to be fired up by Chelsea's transfer agreement with Sevilla.It was mentioned early in the month that Spurs were in the lead.
However, Thomas Tuchel has moved Chelsea ahead with a contract with Sevilla, and now that Lewandowski has left, Barcelona still pose a threat to Tottenham's interest in Kounde.
