“He’s the type of player Chelsea is missing” – Florent Malouda reveals why €75M star is a good signing for Chelsea
Former Chelsea star Florent Malouda is confident incoming Chelsea player Christopher Nkunku will be a huge hit at Stamford Bridge.
“Nkunku is a fully-fledged France international, who left the PSG Academy and made the right decision to move to Germany,” Malouda told Boyle Sports.
“I think this is the type of player Chelsea is actually missing, who are hungry and want to prove themselves. The timing was great for Chelsea to get him as there would have been so many clubs looking at him.
“He got a great assist recently and he will bring so much quality to the Premier League, if I had to compare him to anyone, it would be Allan Saint-Maximin.
”He always wants to try things in the final third, he wants to create or shoot for himself and he is not afraid to take risks.
“Now, it is more about the development of the player and how Chelsea can help him adapt to the Premier League.
“It’s a very good signing for Chelsea, but no Champions League, so they have to make sure he adapts quickly and gets proper game time.”
