Photo: Enkunku s transfer to Bayern is at risk of breaking
According to Biography, Nkunku's transfer to Bayern is at risk of breaking down.
Nkunku's agent Pini Zahavi communicated with club senior executives during the Premier League draw with Crystal Palace 0-0, and then brought bad news to Bayern. The current trend shows that Nkunku will stay at Chelsea for at least one year in contract until 2029, and Chelsea's attitude is very tough. However, the turning point still exists because the information obtained by "Photo" shows that the player himself is eager to transfer.
Because Chelsea did intend to release people before, Bayern never gave up on this deal. Sports director Eber, in particular, advocated the introduction of the French attacker and recently started intensive negotiations with Chelsea. Unlike Waltermad's transfer case, Nkunku's negotiations were entirely dominated by Eber, not CEO Dresen.
According to Bistro, Bayern only wants to loan Nkunku, while Chelsea prefers to sell. Bayern originally expected Zahavi to send positive signals after the meeting today, but the result was contrary to expectations. The negotiations were deadlocked, and the deal is now in jeopardy.
Nkunku has been on the Bayern signing list for several months. In 2023, he transferred from RB Leipzig to Chelsea for 60 million euros. Eber even tried to introduce it in the winter window, but at that time, Chelsea's asking price of 70 million euros far exceeded Bayern's psychological expectations.
After Stuttgart striker Walter Mad's transfer failed, Bayern may suffer another failure in signings. With Kingsley Koeman leaving the team, Bayern urgently needs to strengthen the offensive line, and this tug-of-war of signings is likely to last until the transfer window is closed on September 1.
