Chelsea star Christopher Nkunku has reportedly joined Italian Serie A giants AC Milan in a five-year transfer.
Nkunku joined the Blues from RB Leipzig in a deal worth €60 million in 2023. At the time, he was one of the most exciting attackers in the game, as he shone like a million star in the Bundesliga.
But unfortunately for him, things have not gone well for him at Stamford Bridge. Nkunku has spent most of his time at Chelsea tending to one injury or the other.
As such, he has not played an important role under any manager, including Enzo Maresca, who is in his second season.
Due to his lack of game time, Nkunku has been pushing for an exit. The France international has been linked with many clubs in Europe, including Aston Villa, Bayern Munich, Inter Milan, and his former club Leipzig. And now, he has now gotten it.
Chelsea Sell Christopher Nkunku For €35 million
According to football transfers expert Fabrizio Romano, AC Milan have completed the signing of Christopher Nkunku from Chelsea.
The 27-year-old attacker, who turns 28 in November, has penned a five-year deal with the Rossoneri, which will keep him there until the summer of 2030.
AC Milan do not have a lot of quality in attack, so Nkunku is expected to play an important role for them next season.
He will be hoping to return to his best this season and probably help AC Milan achieve success.
