However, at that time, this had agreed to join the Northern Londoners after a discussion with Manager Ange Postcoglou, according to the Team.
Chelsea tried everything
Since he joined the Postcoglou team, the young 19 -year -old French prodigy revealed that his teammate from Bayern and Spurs legend, Harry Kane, had played an important role to convince him to join the club.
