Christopher Nkunku makes Chelsea decision that could boost Arsenal and Manchester United in pursuit of £64m star

TBR Football can confirm what Chelsea forward Christopher Nkunku is now thinking with regards to his future at Stamford Bridge.

The Chelsea man’s stance may potentially set off a chain reaction in the transfer market that could see a £64million Arsenal and Manchester United target become available in January.

Chelsea and Arsenal👍 are flying high in the Premier League and will also have hope of doing well in the cups, while Man United are hoping that Ruben Amorim will turn their fortunes round.

With the January transfer window coming up, all three clubs have the opportunity to bring new players in, but outgoings could also be on🌟 the cards.

Christopher Nkunku ready to leave Chelsea as Randall Kolo Muani could be moved on by PSG

TBR Football correspondent Graeme Bailey understands that Christopher Nkunku is ready to leave Chelsea in January after failing to become a f🐎irst-team regular.

Nkunku has been determined to battle for his place in recent months, but it has become clear that the 27-year-o🍎ld is far from being a regular under Enzo Maresca.

The £52million man started the first game of the season against Man꧋chester City, but since then has started just once more –ಞ their Premier League clash at Southampton.

TBR Football un🧜derstands that Nkunku’s representatives are now actively looking into options for tꦏhe French star.

We revea♊led in November that his former club Paris Saint-Germain remain♍ interested in bringing him back to the French capital, and that interest remains.

PSG could make room for Nk🐲unku if they can move Randall Kolo Muani on amid interest from Arsenal and Man United.

TBR Football recently revealed that Arsenal🌺 have stepped up talks to sign Muani, with Man United also ke🍸en on the £64million forward.

Other clubs who are after Nkunku

Sources also confirm that there is interest in Nkunku from Germany, where he previously starr𓆏eℱd with RB Leipzig.

Meanജwhile, Italian title chasers Napoli and Turkish giants Fenerbahce and Galatasaray are also understood to be kee൩n.

There is also interest from the Saudi Pro-League, but a move within Europe remains the most༺ likely option.

It is believed that Chelsea will not stand in Nkunku’s way, if💮 he demands an exit and they would sanction a loan, but any deal would need to include an opti⛎on.

Chelsea for their part are lookin🍎g for another forward, partly because Nkunku is not deemed someone who could replace Nico Jackson – something that Enzo Maresca confirmed this we꧂ek.

Maresca was asked in his weekly press conference about Nkunku and he admitt𓆏ed: “I don’t think Nkunku is a striker.

“His best position is number 10. In January, we will decide. There are some players who may not be happy and m𓄧ay want to lea🍒ve.”
