Bayern Munich Open 'Talks' to Sign Chelsea Star as Christopher Nkunku Makes Transfer Decision
Bayern Munich values Nkunku's versatility and Bundesliga success as they negotiate a transfer with Chelsea, who seek to raise funds after his injury-hit season, sources say.
- Bayern Munich and Chelsea have opened direct talks in 2025 to secure a transfer for forward Christopher Nkunku before the window closes.
- The transfer follows Nkunku's 2023 move from RB Leipzig to Chelsea for £52 million and his desire to leave due to limited playing time.
- Nkunku impressed in the Bundesliga with 20 goals and 15 assists but struggled to reach top form at Chelsea during an injury-hit season.
- Chelsea paid over £50 million last year but now values Nkunku around £30 million, while Bayern may consider a loan with an option to buy.
- If completed, the deal would strengthen Bayern’s attack for the UEFA Champions League, while Chelsea plans to finalize Xavi Simons’ signing after Nkunku’s departure.
