Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain are in direct talks for Presnel Kimpembé deal. Initial request around £50-55m but Chelsea are prepared to submit £38-45m proposal. Work in progress.
Chelsea will have more Presnel Kimpembe and Jules Kounde talks next week. Personal terms not a guarantee with Kimpembe, who is settled in Paris but is intrigued by a Chelsea move.
PSG consider Kimpembé part of the project – but he can leave in case of good proposal.
However, Chelsea currently view PSG’s £50m price tag as too high.
Jules Kounde transfer all depends on Sevilla, who are hoping for a bidding war. Chelsea have actually never walked away but also reluctant to pay the £69m release clause or close.
Thomas Tuchel does really want Kounde but it’s arguably a more complicated negotiation now than when the window opened due to increased interest.
Further clarity expected this week.
Chelsea’s last trip to Seville didn’t provide a breakthrough.
