Former England and Tottenham manager, Glenn Hoddle, believes Christopher Nkunku could ask to leave the club in the January transfer window.
Chelsea signed Nkunku from RB Leipzig in the summer of 2023 for £52million.
But the France forward has only made 26 appearances for the Premier League west London club due to injury issues.
Nkunku scored a goal in Chelsea’s Conference League 4-1 win against Panathinaikos on Thursday.
Speaking on TNT Sports, Hoddle said: “The injuries are obviously there, he knows he’s not quite at his sharpest yet.
“When I look at Chelsea’s forwards, I think Nkunku would be more clinical than Nicolas Jackson if he had the same time on the pitch and had his chances so far this season.
“Jackson is obviously improving and getting more confident, he has the manager’s faith and backing right now.
“Whether Nkunku is going to be happy… he might be one that will think he needs to leave come January if this is still happening.”
