Jules Kounde's view on joining Chelsea has not changed as Blues poised to lose key duo

And Kounde could be one of the club’s top targets as they seek to replenish their back line. The returning loanee Levi Colwill – a 19-year-old who has starred for Huddersfield – could also be given a chance by Tuchel. 

Youngsters Trevoh Chalobah and Malang Sarr have done well but could be upgraded on. The veteran Thiago Silva will turn 38 in September. 

Sevilla boss Lopetegui revealed that Kounde had been blocked from joining Chelsea last year. He said in September: “Kounde didn’t join Chelsea because our Sevilla board decided it was the right thing to do, based on the value of the offers. For me it’s positive – he’ll perform again at top level.”

Kounde has played 27 league games for Sevilla this term, with Lopetegui’s side challenging for the title for much of the campaign. A recent dip in form now sees them sit third behind Real Madrid and Barcelona.
