Barcelona linked to hold talks with ex-Chelsea striker
The Catalan side is interested in Christopher Nkunku's situation at AC Milan.
Barcelona is reportedly in discussions with former Chelsea striker Christopher Nkunku's representatives, according to a source from August 15, 2026. The Catalan club, seeking a replacement for departed players Robert Lewandowski and Ferran Torres, has contacted Nkunku's team after excluding him from their transfer plans at AC Milan.
Ruben Amorim's decision to leave out the Frenchman, following his team's acquisition of two-time Champions League winner Goncalo Ramos from Paris Saint-Germain, is not surprising given Nkunku's limited playing time at Premier League side Chelsea. The ex-LB Leipzig forward has made only 42 starts in 35 appearances since joining the English club, netting just 11 times, including eight goals from his own effort.
