This morning, AC Milan have agreed a deal with Chelsea to sign Christopher Nkunku, according to Fabrizio Romano.
There have been several ideas for Milan this summer, but the latest could be the last, with things progressing quite quickly in the past 24 hours. Yesterday afternoon, it seemed like Dusan Vlahovic could be the man to arrive.
However, the Serbian has been overshadowed again. This time, by Chelsea’s out-of-favour Frenchman Nkunku. Last night, things advanced rather quickly, and this has continued through to this morning.
Nkunku: Done deal
Now, Fabrizio Romano has given the deal the ‘here we go’ stamp, stating that a deal has been ‘verbally agreed’ between the clubs. The documents are set to be prepared today, and the Rossoneri will pay €35 million plus bonuses.
Additionally, the Frenchman will sign a five-year deal with the club, which was agreed upon yesterday.
With RB Leipzig, Nkunku was fantastic, scoring 36 times in his final two seasons at the club, and this will be the player that the Rossoneri hope to bring to San Siro. With that said, he has failed to score more than three a year in the Premier League. It is certainly a risk, but it could pay off massively.
