Chelsea transfer rumours: Aurelien Tchouameni price, Jules Kounde competition

Chelsea are currently sitting pretty under the tutelage of Thomas Tuchel.

The German currently has the Blues stationed at the top of the Premier League table and they are well on their way to booking a place in the last-16 of the Champions League.

That does not mean that Tuchel or Marina Granovskaia for that matter are resting on their laurels, though, as Chelsea continue to be linked with a number of potential transfers ahead of the January window.

The Blues were busy throughout the summer as they broke their transfer record to secure the signing of Romelu Lukaku, whilst Saul Niguez also arrived from Atletico Madrid.

It was on the outgoings front that the Blues were even more impressive though as they earned a tidy fortune from various sales.

With that being said, football.london takes a look at the latest transfer rumours coming out of Stamford Bridge ahead of the January window.

What?

Chelsea are reportedly set to pay more for Monaco midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni, with the Frenchman’s performances having caught the eye for the Ligue 1 outfit.

As per the reports, the club could well demand up to €50m (£42m) for the youngster’s services with a number of European giants apparently circling.

Chelsea are indeed one of those, with Juventus also thought to be admirers of Tchouameni.

Who?

Jules Kounde

Where?

What?

From one Frenchman to another now as Chelsea reportedly face competition for the services of Sevilla defender Jules Kounde.

As per reports in Spain, Manchester United are interested in the centre-back and could be set to make a move in January as they attempt to bolster their defensive options.

Chelsea of course hold a long-standing interest in Kounde and had bids rejected for his services in the summer transfer window.

Who?

Christian Pulisic

Where?

AS

What?

Sticking with reports in Spain and Christian Pulisic could well be the next man to earn Chelsea a considerable cash windfall.

As per the reports, Genoa are interested in the American winger, with former Blues forward Andriy Shevchenko identifying him as a transfer target.
