Jules Koundé has been one of the names of the summer. The central of the Seville signed a season 2020-2021 spectacular that cost him to win the interest of a sinfín of European clubs, included the FC Barcelona or Real Madrid. However, the economic requirements of the picture of Nervión carried it to be allocated to recalar in the Premier League, where several teams have interested in his index card.
The Manchester United split like favourite, but the signing of Raphael Varane, pertinent of the Real Madrid, left him the free way to Chelsea of Thomas Tuchel, that is still in the research of the ideal formula to include to the French defender in his rows.
