Borussia Dortmund Eyes Potential Signing of Christopher Nkunku

Christopher Nkunku finds it challenging to secure a key role at Chelsea. Despite being given opportunities by Enzo Mareska, they mainly come in the Conference League. The player’s aspirations significantly exceed this, which suggests that a parting with The Blues may be imminent. According to the latest media reports, the French star’s agent is actively communicating with several major European clubs.

Nkunku’s representative has been in touch with top clubs such as Borussia Dortmund, FC Barcelona, and SSC Napoli. This opens up the possibility of the 22-year-old returning to the Bundesliga, where he played before moving to the UK. Borussia Dortmund’s management is keen on strengthening their attacking lineup and might consider bringing the fourteen-time French international into their squad.

Standing at 177 centimeters, Nkunku joined Chelsea in July 2023 after his transfer from RB Leipzig for 60 million euros. A product of Paris Saint-Germain’s youth system, he has posted decent stats this season, featuring in 25 matches, scoring 12 goals, and providing 4 assists. Although adept in the attacking midfielder role, he’s had limited playtime in the Premier League.
