You don't want any surprises! Chelsea enters fully into the signing of Koundé

Jules Koundé is the 'obsession' of Xavi Hernández to reinforce his defence the next campaign. The French gathers all the requirements that looks for the technician in a central and is the ideal mate for Ronald Araújo in the axis of the defence. However, in spite of that the Catalans see with 'good eyes' his incorporation, the little liquidity that possesses the Barça nowadays does practically impossible his signing.

Added to this, are not the only competitors in the 'career' for purchasing his services. Chelsea already was after his steps in 2021, but the enormous pretences of the Seville hampered the operation the past summer. Now, after the sale of the club to the signature chaired by Todd Boehly, more the exit of Antonio Rüdiger and Andreas Christensen, the 'blues' would be decided to fichar to the defender to as it give place.

As it aims 'Sportive World', the Andalusians would not put difficulties as long as the quantity of money put on the table was the suitable. His clause of exit is priced in 90 million euros, but the nervionenses could access sell him by a near figure. The ones of Stamford Bridge would be looking for close his traspaso before that the 'crowbars' economic of the Barcelona are approved, since to day of today the culés do not explain neither with 'muscle' in his arks neither with the margin salarial to go in in a bidding.

Besides, the escape of talent that will suffer the staff of Thomas Tuchel is a factor determinant. The German only has the renewal of Thiago Silva until 2023 and runs with the risk that César Azpilicueta and Marcos Alonso also 'change of airs' in the weeks to come, by what attend the saga is an urgency of first need for the technical body and the sportive direction of Marina Granovskaia.

Another alternative

In front of these difficulties, the name that more 'sound' in the Camp Nou is Kalidou Koulibaly. The Senegalese culminates his agreement in 2023 and already has vociferado publicly that it will not renew his bond with the Napoli, by what his work goes through to defend another T-shirt from the following course. With 31 years, his aerial power and his exit of balloon turn him into the candidate number one of Xavi in the market estival. His value of market oscillates the 45 millions, although the Barcelona look forward to to concretise the movement by an a lot lower quantity.
