Well that title makes no sense at all does it? Especially when we were being told that Sevilla wanted a bidding war for Jules Kounde and that’s what the hold up was.
Nope, it seems that either Chelsea just point blankly pulled the plug on the deal for whatever reason, or Sevilla want to do their Spanish rivals a massive favour and sell them their best player who they would have got more money for if they sold him to a different league.

Barcelona are in direct negotiations with Sevilla for Jules Koundé. Official bid won’t be €50m plus €10m and won’t match Chelsea’s £55m bid – it will be lower with different structure. 🚨🔵🔴 #FCB

Makes zero sense at all, but I am not surprised with this weird transfer saga, and I am not surprised that a deal that involves Barcelona seems weird and fishy right now, since they don’t have any money to make signings yet they still keep finding money from money tress (I think they technically call them levers). Something doesn’t feel right about this at all. But thankfully now, it’s no longer Chelsea’s issue as they pull from the deal.
kounde is not worth going for.he is only after money.who wants a player who doesn’t really want to be at the club.forget him.i hope he flops at barcelona he is a tosser.
