Trained at PSG before leaving for RB Leipzig, Christopher Nkunku keeps an eye on his former club. He spoke of a possible return.
Christopher Nkunku is one of the French internationals trained at Paris Saint-Germain that the capital club let slip far too early before seeing them flourish elsewhere. The attacking midfielder left for RB Leipzig in 2019 without ever really having had his chance in Paris. Now at Chelsea for a year, the French international shines, when he is not hampered by injuries which have accumulated for him in recent seasons. Not tenured among Blueshowever, he managed to take advantage of the playing time that was offered to him and for this reason once again earned his place in the French team for the October gathering. As for his club career, he raised the possibility of a return to Paris.
Christopher Nkunku did not personally put it on the table. Far from it. But he still agreed to answer a question on the subject that was asked to him this Sunday on the show “ Téléfoot“, broadcast on
TF1. When the journalist told him about a potential duo with Bradley Barcola, the former PSG burst out laughing: “I don’t know what to say to that. Yes, PSG remains a great club. » As for a possible approach from Parisian recruiters, Christopher Nkunku was clear, there was none: “No, there was no approach. »
At least things are said.
Nkunku in great shape
Now aged twenty-six, Christopher Nkunku is under contract with Chelsea FC until June 2029. This season, he has taken part in eleven matches with his team, in all competitions, for a total of seven goals. A quality offensive performance which allowed him to regain the favor of Didier Deschamps to reintegrate the France group, perhaps also taking advantage of the two empty places left jointly by the recent international retirement of Antoine Griezmann and the rest granted to Kylian Mbappé.
