Christopher Nkunku offered to Inter Milan, club assessing options
Chelsea forward Christopher Nkunku has been offered to Inter Milan, and it will be interesting to see if a deal can be concluded.
Christopher Nkunku is valued at €45 million, and a report from TEAMtalk has claimed that the Inter Milan are currently assessing their options. The 27-year-old French attacker needs to leave Chelsea for regular playing time, and a move to Inter Milan could be ideal for him.
Inter Milan are among the biggest clubs in the world, and they came close to winning both the Serie A title and the UEFA Champions League last season. They will look to go one step further and win major trophies in the upcoming campaign. The Nerazzurri need to strengthen their squad, and the versatile French attacker would be an ideal fit.
Nkunku is capable of playing anywhere across the attacking line, helping to create opportunities for teammates and scoring goals himself. He is no longer an indispensable asset for Chelsea, who are looking to move him on. Chelsea have strengthened their offensive unit this summer, and they are prepared to sell fringe players, which would raise funds for further signings.
A transfer would benefit all parties, but Inter Milan may struggle to afford the €45 million asking price for Nkunku. It will be interesting to see if Chelsea are willing to be flexible in their demands. Clubs are aware that the 27-year-old is unwanted at Chelsea and may seek to sign him for a reduced price.
Nkunku needs a move this summer
Nkunku has also been linked with a return to the Bundesliga, where he played his best football in Germany. It remains to be seen if he opts to return to familiar surroundings. There is little doubt he has the physicality and technical attributes to perform well in Italy, and he could become a key player for Inter Milan.
Inter Milan need that extra bit of quality in the final third in order to win major trophies next season. They looked quite helpless in the attack in the UEFA Champions League final against PSG. It will be interesting to see if they can address that situation by signing quality players like Nkunku.
