Chelsea are eager to make a massive move for Barcelona right-back

In their bid to further bolster their defense, Chelsea are aiming to make a big move for the star right-back from the Spanish giants Barcelona. Enzo Maresca might head in search of a new defender for them and the French International aligns perfectly with their need.

It is worth noting that the Catalan star is already linked with a move to Liverpool as well, and many new bidders are likely to join the race if his current club puts him on sale.

With their frontline doing very well, Chelsea will have a clear aim to put some strength in their other departments, the most important of which is their backline.

Chelsa ready to make a €65 million bid for Jules Kounde

According to the Spanish news outlet Fichajes, Chelsea are eyeing a massive move to bring Jules Kounde from Catalonia. The French International has been previously linked with Liverpool as well. According to rumors, there is speculation that the London-based club could offer a sum of 65 million euros for him.

Since he arrived at the Camp Nou, the 25-year-old has established himself as a key player for his current club. He has been considered in high regard by the manager Hansi Flick.

Chelsea is on the hunt for players to bolster the resilience of their defense, and Koundé is the perfect candidate to fit their tactical strategy and solidify their backline for the upcoming season.

Though the Blaguranas do not seem in the mood to let Kounde go, a massive bid might trigger the financially struggling club to let the star player go next summer. It is worth noting that the Paris-born currently earns €260,577 gross per week from his current employers.

With the frontline performing well, the manager is likely to seek fresh and swift talent for Stamford Bridge, and Kounde could be an ideal fit.

Eyeing a Champions League spot for the next season, the Italian coach along with their young guns will be keen to make some fresh additions in the next transfer window.
