It remains to be seen whether Chelsea would allow him join a Prem rival.

Nkunku still has five years remaining on his contract with the Blues.

Last June, the attacker moved from RB Leipzig to Chelsea for £52 million.

Numerous injury issues plagued his debut season at Stamford Bridge.

Ten of Nkunku’s 31 Chelsea appearances this season have resulted in 13 goals.

He might be a replacement for Joshua Zirkzee, who joined Manchester United in the summer but hasn’t impressed at Old Trafford.

Erik ten Hag, his former manager, did not even want to sign him, SunSport said last week.
