The news that Jules Kounde is heading to Barcelona must be putting Chelsea into crisis mode.
The club have already missed out on a couple of their top targets this summer, and now Kounde, a player they’ve targeted for a year, is heading elsewhere.
They will be hurriedly looking down their list of targets, and the best player still available is surely Milan Skriniar of Inter Milan.
He’s been chased by PSG all summer, and according to the Sun the Parisians are already deep into talks over a £67.24m move.
Of course it’s possible that the defender is more tempted by a move to Chelsea, but given he’s pretty much guaranteed trophies in Paris, they’ll be tough to turn down.
The catastrophic summer so far can’t get much worse, but if Chelsea have anything about them they’ll put a monster offer on the table as soon as they can, to at least disrupt PSG’s plans.
