Another lengthy transfer saga has come to an end as Milan complete their move for Chelsea and France star Christopher Nkunku.
Once billed as one of the brightest attacking talents on the continent, the 27-year-old former PSG academy graduate heads for new pastures at San Siro in a deal worth €37m plus €5m in add-ons.
After spending a brilliant four seasons in Saxony with Bundesliga outfit RB Leipzig, where the Frenchman bagged 70 goals in 172 appearances, Nkunku jumped at the chance to join the Blues in the summer of 2023 in a £52 million move.

Since then, the Lagny-sur-Marne native managed just 18 goals in 62 appearances while failing to establish himself as a vital cog in the wheel at Stamford Bridge.
Nkunku now joins a Milan side amidst retooling efforts in the summer window, having completed moves for eight new faces, including Croatian icon Luka Modrić, while also nearing a completed move for Nigerian striker Victor Boniface.
