Manchester United reportedly have an eye on Chelsea forward Christopher Nkunku, with L’Équipe noting that the Frenchman feels frustrated by his limited playing time.

Paris Saint-Germain might also be watching the situation, potentially exploring a return for Nkunku, who originally left the club to secure a bigger role.

However, Sky Sports Germany’s Florian Plettenberg suggests that Nkunku isn’t planning to leave this winter. If his playing time at Chelsea doesn’t improve by summer, though, he may start considering other options.

According to Telegraph Football, Chelsea might be open to a January sale but only if they can recoup the £52 million they spent to sign him.

Football Insider reported on Friday that Chelsea are reluctant to allow Nkunku to move on amid reported interest from Manchester United.

The report notes that the Frenchman would be attracted to a potential Old Trafford move should the opportunity arise, with the player keen to play regular first-team football.

This information also comes after journalist Ben Jacobs mentioned that Nkunku will likely get more minutes as the season goes on and added that Manchester United haven’t actually inquired about the Chelsea player.
