Arsenal & Man Utd want to sign Christopher Nkunku?

Arsenal and Manchester United could compete for the signature of Chelsea playmaker Christopher Nkunku at the end of the season, according to The Sun.

The Frenchman has had a disappointing career with the Blues and has been guilty of missing several clear-cut chances. He has played second fiddle to Nicolas Jackson upfront this term.

He is poised to leave the Blues during the next transfer window and reports claim that the former Leipzig man could end up staying in the Premier League next season.

Arsenal have been following him from his time at Paris Saint-Germain and manager Mikel Arteta admires him. United boss Ruben Amorim is also keen on landing the talented attacker.

Chelsea purchased the forward for around £58 million from Leipzig and they are expected to hold out for something similar to sanction his exit.

Bayern Munich explored a loan-to-buy option at the start of the year, but they may not enter the race. They are focused on landing Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen instead.
