Christopher Nkunku and Joao Felix open to Manchester United move

TBR Football can also confirm that, durin𒐪g those talks, Man United asked Chelsea about the situation of both Christopher Nkunku and Joao Felix.

Nkunku and Felix, who have started just three league games apiece this term, have been told by Chelsea that they ca🌳n move on this month.

Nkunku has attracted th𒅌e attention of Bayern Munich, while his former club Paris Saint-Germain were keen but this month their focus was on Khvicha Kva෴ratskhelia.

Meanwhile, Felix has been look♏ed at by Serie A giants AC Milan.

TBR Football is told that both players wouldꦕ be open to the prospect of a move to United, if something progr𓆉essed before the end of the window.

Chelsea head coach Enzo Maresca confirmed during his Friday pre-game pre✃ss conference that he does find it hard to give either player much playing time.

“The problem, unfortunately, for Joao and Christo [Nkunku], the manager plays most of the games with one attacking midfielder and that is Cole Palmer,” said the Italianꦓ.

“We have decided to play with an attacking midfielder in most of the games, so this is the reaso꧑n why Joao and Christo struggle to get minutes.

“Not for any different reasons because they are both fa🔯ntastic players, fantastic guys who work well.”
