The1905.Club Summary

Chelsea forward Christopher Nkunku has become a late transfer target for Tottenham, who are in the market for a versatile attacker. The 27-year-old has struggled for regular game time at Stamford Bridge and is reportedly open to leaving. Despite impressing in cup competitions, he has not been a key player for Enzo Maresca in the league. Tottenham previously pursued Mathys Tel but failed to secure a deal, leading them to explore Nkunku as an alternative. Chelsea may be willing to sell if the right offer comes in before Monday’s deadline.

Key Points

  • Tottenham have submitted an enquiry about Nkunku as they look for attacking reinforcements.
  • Nkunku is frustrated with a lack of Premier League minutes despite performing well in cup competitions.
  • Chelsea are open to a sale, though they value him at £70m, which could complicate negotiations.
  • Tottenham previously agreed a deal for Mathys Tel, but the player rejected a move, prompting their interest in Nkunku.
  • Axel Disasi is also a Tottenham target, with Spurs looking to bolster multiple areas of their squad.

With the transfer window closing soon, it remains to be seen whether Spurs will formalise their interest in Nkunku with an official bid.
