🚨🔴⚪️ Understand Christopher Nkunku is one of the main names on FC Bayern shortlist.
He’s considered ideal player to cover several positions but deal depend on costs now.

According to journalist Peter Rutzler of The Times (via @iMiaSanMia), a transfer to Bayern Munich would “appeal”
to Nkunku, but Chelsea will only consider a permanent sale and not a loan:
Bayern Munich are considering a move for Christopher Nkunku once the sale of Kingsley Coman to Al Nassr is completed. A move to Bayern would appeal to Nkunku, who has attracted interest from elsewhere in Europe.
Chelsea, for now, will only consider a permanent sale for Nkunku. They are looking to sign Xavi Simons and Alejandro Garnacho but both deals will require further sales if they are to progress.
