Barca skilled on the goal of Chelsea

According to transfer news expert Fabrizio Romano, Sevilla agreed to a $55 million offer from Barca. Earlier, the Catalonian team had agreed with Kounde on both terms from July 23, after only one day of negotiations.

Coach Xavi plays an important role to help Barca win the French center -back with Chelsea. Football philosophy and ambition that the Catalonian military leader chased with Barca convinced Kounte, making him just want to move to the Camp Nou.

Chelsea has pursued Kounte for the past year. In the last two transfer, Thomas Tuchel urged the Board of Directors to recruit 23 -year -old center -backs, but failed. This summer, after Antonio Rudiger left, Chelsea was determined to win the signature of Kounte. But in the end, Barca won this deal, though sometimes, they seemed to have retreated.

On July 25, the Barca website sold the shirt called Kounte, referring to the center -back was about to move to the Nou Camp, but then deleted.

Financial difficulties, Barca was not appreciated in the summer transfer market 2022. But the Camp Nou team proves the opposite. Kounte is their fifth deal, after Andreas Christensen, Franck Kessie (free), Robert Lewandowski ($ 50 million) and Raphinha ($ 65 million).

In this year of rookie, Christensen came from Chelsea itself. Barca also bared two players who were about to run out of contracts of the Stamford Bridge team, Marcos Alonso and Cesar Azpilicueta. But according to British media, Chelsea will not let Barca get more people.

The conflict between the two clubs started before the Kounte case, because Chelsea also pursued Raphinha but was overtaken by Barca. Chelsea also looked at Ousmane Dembele but Barca successfully convinced the French player to sign a new contract. Chelsea is said to ask for Sevilla $ 66 million to Kounte, more than Barca, but still fail.
