There has been a lot of talk about Christopher Nkunku possibly making a return to his former club, Paris-Saint Germain. The Chelsea star has finally addressed these rumors and provided an update on his future. Nkunku, who joined Chelsea in 2023 for a whopping £52m from RB Leipzig, has been linked with a move back to PSG.
The 26-year-old French international started his career at PSG and went on to play 78 games for the club. It's no surprise that they would be interested in bringing him back. However, Nkunku has made it clear that while PSG is a big club, there has been no official approach from them.
Nkunku has been in top form for Chelsea this season, scoring seven goals in just 11 games across all competitions. He is currently under contract until 2029 and has made a total of 25 appearances for the Blues so far. Nkunku's impressive performances have not gone unnoticed, as he has caught the eye of his boss, Enzo Maresca.
Maresca has been facing a dilemma when it comes to choosing between Nkunku and fellow midfielder Nicolas Jackson for game time. He recently admitted that it's difficult to fit both of them into the starting lineup due to the need for defensive balance. Maresca humorously suggested that he and the interviewer could play defense if he were to include all of his talented midfielders in the starting XI.
Chelsea's next match is against Liverpool on Sunday, and they currently sit in fourth place in the Premier League table after seven games. It's clear that Nkunku's focus remains on performing for his current club, and he is committed to helping them succeed. As for the rumors of a return to PSG, only time will tell if they will come to fruition.
