RB Leipzig manager, Marco Rose, has dismissed reports claiming Christopher Nkunku has already agreed on a deal to join Chelsea as “speculation”.
It is believed Nkunku has undergone his medicals and signed a pre-contract agreement with the Blues.
It will see the France international leave for Stamford Bridge next summer when his £52.7 million release clause becomes active.
Leipzig is due to host Celtic in the Champions League on Wednesday and Rose was asked about the rumours.
He replied: “It’s speculation, we don’t comment on it.
“We don’t care, we don’t care.”
The 24-year-old scored 20 goals and provided 13 assists in the league last season, while he has already notched six goals in the 2022/23 campaign.
