Chelsea transfer list
Chelsea have added Frenchman, Presnal Kimpembe to the transfer list to solve Chelsea’s issues in the search for a new center-back.
Chelsea’s interest in french defenders has reached its peak, with a deal on Jules Kounde closing in, there are still a number of spots to be filled within the Chelsea defence.
According to journalist Christian Falk, Presnel Kimpembe has joined Chelsea’s wish list of defenders alongside Mathias de Ligt and Jules Kounde.
Last year, L’Equipe reported that Kimpembe was willing to leave PSG for a new challenge.
The 26-year-old joined PSG as a ten-year-old and has been in good company since joining their first team permanently.
Chelsea fans are keen on finding a new center-back who is just as effective as Thiago Silva.
However, they struggle to picture the perfect replacement for Antonio Rudiger.
According to French journalist Olivier Bossard, Kimpembe has received ‘a few text messages’ from Silva to ‘sell him’ the project at Chelsea.
With Antonio Rudiger officially gone, signing Presnel Kimpembe would make perfect sense.
