Christopher Nkunku Next Club Odds: RB Leipzig Return On The Cards

Christopher Nkunku was part of Chelsea's first spending spree of the Todd Boehly era, but he is likely to leave the club this summer after being pushed down the pecking order.

Boehly has again splashed the cash in this transfer window, signing the likes of Liam Delap and Joao Pedro. This leaves Nkunku looking for a move away, and his former club RB Leipzig are favourites with betting sites to sign the Frenchman.

The former Paris Saint-Germain striker, who is 4/1 to remain at Stamford Bridge, was unlucky to pick up an injury soon after joining Chelsea, scuppering his chances of making an instant impact.

After returning from injury, Nkunku struggled to break into Enzo Maresca's team, but did play a big role in their Europa Conference League win last season.

Although he managed just six goals during his time with the Blues, he still has many admirers from clubs across Europe.

Below, we look at the clubs in the running to sign the 27-year-old, and the latest Christopher Nkunku next club odds.

Leipzig Return Would Be Popular

Nkunku is fondly remembered by RB Leipzig fans, having made over 100 appearances during his time with the club.

He took his form to a new level with the German club, and he was awarded Bundesliga Player of the Season in 2021/22.

Leipzig recently sold Benjamin Sesko to Manchester United, so they have money to spend and need a replacement for the Slovenian.

Nkunku would be a popular signing with fans, and he is 8/11 with football betting sites to return to the club this summer.

*Odds correct at time of publish, 2.30pm 12/8/25

Bayern Another Bundesliga Option

Bayern Munich have been linked with Nkunku in the past, and they could make a move for the France international.

The Bundesliga champions have lost some key players this summer, with Thomas Muller and Leroy Sane both leaving on free transfers.

Jamal Musiala is also set to miss a large chunk of the season through injury, so manager Vincent Kompany will be looking for more attacking options.

Bayern are priced at 6/1 to sign the Chelsea man this summer.

Inter Need To Add Quality

Inter Milan enjoyed an impressive campaign last season, but ultimately ended up with no silverware.

They did make it to the Champions League final, but were outclassed by PSG in a 5-0 defeat.

Cristian Chivu has taken the reins at the club, and he will be hoping to make a statement signing over the summer.

Nkunku would add quality to the squad, and he is 8/1 with betting apps to join the 20-time Serie A champions.

Newcastle's Striker Search Continues

The biggest drama of the summer transfer window has centred around Newcastle United.

As well as having struggled to land most of their main targets, the Alexander Isak saga also continues to rumble on.

The Swede has reportedly claimed he will never play for Newcastle again, so Eddie Howe is in desperate need of a replacement as the new season approaches.

Nkunku would not be a like-for-like replacement, but he is 12/1 to join the Magpies.

Spurs And Forest In The Running

Tottenham (20/1) and Nottingham Forest (20/1) endured polar opposite campaigns last season.

Spurs finished 17th in the league, although a Europa League win and subsequent Champions League qualification was a saving grace.

Thomas Frank is rebuilding at Spurs, and having lost Son Heung-min, they need more attacking options.

Forest, on the other hand, finished seventh, but they are also looking for attacking reinforcements with Anthony Elanga having left for Newcastle.

Strasbourg Among Outsiders

A surprise name among the clubs supposedly interested in signing Nkunku is Strasbourg (20/1).

Managed by Liam Rosenior, the French club had an impressive season and would offer the Chelsea forward a chance to return to his home country.

Elsewhere, a move to any Saudi Arabian club can be backed at 20/1, while AC Milan are priced at 25/1.
