Fans get excited! Chelsea ‘to complete’ signing of £52M star ‘very soon’

Chelsea are set to complete the signing of Christopher Nkunku ‘very soon’ – Simon Phillips has told fans

Graham Potter has signed a five-year deal at Chelsea after the club decided to get rid of German boss Thomas Tuchel after an indifferent start to the new season.

The former Brighton boss has reportedly been assured by owner Todd Boehly that he will be given plenty of time to implement his plans for the role.

And that has led to speculation in the media that Chelsea have been keen to secure the services of Nkunku after failing to sign the attacker during the summer transfer window – despite numerous offers

But now it seems that Chelsea have agreed to bring the player to the Premier League after it was claimed that he has signed a pre-contract agreement with the Blues

Recent reports in the media have claimed that Nkunku has now agreed to join Chelsea at the end of the season – and the Blues have agreed to pay RB Leipzig the £52 million that they have been desiring

But if you believe the words of Simon Phillips – he will most definitely be playing in Chelsea shirt from the summer.

What has Phillips said?

Phillips told GIVEMESPORT: “On Nkunku’s side, he has agreed to join Chelsea.

If the reports are true and Chelsea have agreed to sign the player – then he will be a brilliant signing for the club – but also a risk

The Bundesliga is not the Premier League and we have seen the likes of Jadon Sancho and Christian Pulisic move to the English game and flop – so that is the risk

But if they can get the best out of the lad – they have a player that can score goals on a regular basis guys
