"I was so eager to return and when I did, there was a new muscular problem. The second season I felt good, but the coach made other decisions. I learned a lot at Chelsea. I want to be competitive and win trophies."
"I think it was all perfect when I arrived, but then I got hurt and was out for quite a few months."
"The first time I heard about Milan's interest was when I spoke to the director of sport. I didn't think about it too much, it was all perfect for me to come here."
Christopher Nkunku joined Chelsea ahead of the 2023-24 season after four successful years with RB Leipzig. Knee and hip injuries limited him to 11 league appearances in his first season and 38 Premier League matches across two seasons, with six goals and two assists and only 11 starts. He contributed five goals and three assists in nine Conference League games, helping secure the trophy. Nkunku described being eager to return but suffering recurring muscular problems, felt fit in his second season despite selection decisions, and completed a £32m move to AC Milan where he aims to play as a trequartista and compete for honors.
