Incoming £51M signing excited about partnering with Koulibaly at Chelsea
According to reports, Jules Kounde of Sevilla is eager to work alongside Kalidou Koulibaly at Chelsea.
However, Kounde is a footballer that has received a lot of media attention recently because Antonio Rudiger departed Chelsea for Real Madrid, and Kounde is thought to be the ideal replacement.
Despite not being the biggest of central defenders, he is quick, strong, good with the ball, and extremely good in the air. It has also been often suggested that he is desperate to leave Sevilla this summer.
However, despite the numerous reports linking him to a transfer to Chelsea, it has been asserted in numerous media sites that he would much rather stay in La Liga and finish his move to Barcelona.
The French international has expressed his desire to Barca manager Xavi, but a deal is not conceivable unless the Nou Camp club can raise money through player sales.
Chelsea was able to return and attempt to close a deal for the brilliant Frenchman as a result. According to reports, the club is now highly optimistic that they can get Kounde for £51 million.
According to recent reports, Kounde is apparently thrilled about the prospect of partnering with Koulibaly in west London.
Over the previous ten years, Koulibaly has distinguished himself as one of Italy’s top defenders, and according to CBS, Kounde is eager to have the chance to learn from him.
