Christopher Nkunku’s future at Chelsea continues to fuel rumors. Despite his 10 goals and 1 assist in 18 games this season, the French striker complains of irregular playing time, particularly in the Premier League. Rumors of a possible departure in January, or even a return to PSG, have emerged. However, Blues coach Enzo Maresca has denied the speculation. “Nkunku would like to play more? And I would like to have long hair, the coach joked at a press conference before the Conference League match against Heidenheim.
“Nkunku is not for sale”, assures Maresca
Maresca insisted on the club’s commitment to Nkunku: “He didn’t say he was unhappy, and he’s absolutely not for sale. » However, he recognized the difficulty of managing a large squad, where competition is tough for offensive places. The coach also stressed that the Frenchman sometimes plays out of his ideal position: “His best position is as a 10, but Cole (Palmer) already plays there. We need balance. » Comments which put an end, for the moment, to the rumors of an imminent departure of Nkunku.
