' Reject it', Club Tells Target Not to Join Chelsea Despite Personal Terms Agreement
Despite signing Senegalese centerback Kolidou Koulibaly, Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel is eager to bolster his defense.
Several prospects, including Nathan Ake, Pau Torres, Jules Kounde, Josko Gvardiol, and Matthijs De Ligt, have reportedly been linked to Chelsea, but it seems like nothing more has occurred.
The signing of Raheem Sterling by the Blues earlier in the summer transfer window was done in an effort to improve Tuchel's underwhelming offensive options.
Jules Kounde, a defender for Sevilla, has been urged by Barcelona to decline a transfer to Stamford Bridge, according to Football London, because they want to hijack the deal and use the 23-year-old to bolster Xavi's defense.Despite having a personal agreement with Chelsea for a cost of £71 million that is expected to be paid, it is claimed that Barcelona is in contact with the player's representation.
Chelsea will need to speed up their moves because Barca appears eager to duplicate what they did with Raphinha.
If the agreement for Jules Kounde falls through, the blues are in communication with PSG about signing Presnel Kimbepe.
