Luxury replacement in Enzo Maresca's plans, Christopher Nkunku could leave Chelsea during the next winter transfer window. Announced on the PSG shelves, the French striker could return to his training club.
Christopher Nkunku returning to PSG? The soap opera intensifies
Christopher Nkunku could soon make his comeback to Paris Saint-Germain. The French striker, lacking playing time at Chelsea, is a priority for the capital club. After shining under the colors of RB Leipzig, the 27-year-old failed to establish himself in the Premier League. According to the English media TBR Football, the winter transfer window could allow him to relaunch in another club which could be PSG.
Five years after leaving the capital, the native of Lagny-sur-Marne could thus return to his training club in January in a more ambitious sporting project, a familiar environment and the prospect of returning to the high level. There is no shortage of reasons for Nkunku to want to return to Paris Saint-Germain. The capital club would be ready to make a strong choice to make the return of its former titi possible.

While Randal Kolo Muani struggles to establish himself in the PSG starting lineup, Luis Campos and Luis Enrique are reportedly considering an exchange with Chelsea. The objective? Repatriate Christopher Nkunku, trained at the club and eager to find playing time. According to the English media TBR Football, the Blues would be open to this possibility.
But would this exchange be beneficial for PSG? If the return of Nkunku, trained at the club, could appeal to Parisian supporters, his recent performances at Chelsea raise questions. For his part, Randal Kolo Muani, who arrived in Paris in 2023 for a check for 95 million euros from Eintracht Frankfurt, has not yet fully convinced.
His profile, more physical and direct, could bring a new dimension to Chelsea's attack. The former Nantes player, on bad terms with Luis Enrique, is also on the market. A game of musical chairs could therefore well take place between the two French internationals in the weeks to come. To be continued…
