Chelsea are still pushing hard for Presnel Kimpembe, according to a report in L’Equipe today cited by Get French Football News.
The defender has had plenty of time at PSG and knows Thomas Tuchel well from their shared time there, and it seems like he’s starting to emerge as a top target for us now that both Jules Kounde and Matthijs de Ligt are proving difficult to secure.
26 year old Kimpembe was once regarded as one of the top young defenders in Europe, although it would be fair to say his star has waned a little.
He’s still got tons of physical ability, experience and class, and could add a lot to our back three, especially being reunited with Thiago Silva, with whom he had a strong partnership in Paris.
With a new manager and a new sporting director at PSG, anything is possible, and it will be interesting to monitor these next few weeks.
Am tired of this dude called Kounde,the other season Kounde,last season Kounde this season Kounde,this player is overrated for nothing!!! Then name should never be mentioned again in Chelsea’s platforms ASAP
