Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca has left the door open for Christopher Nkunku to leave the club this summer.

The 27-year-old striker’s £52m move from RB Leipzig hasn’t worked out, and he is expected to depart.

He said: “If Christo is here with us, it is because we think he can help us, and he can be with us even next season.

“But as you said, there are many speculations, not just about Christo, about many players.

“And then if something is going to happen, I don’t know because we said many times when the transfer window is open, anything can happen in terms of players that can arrive or players that can leave.”
