FC Chelsea led by German team manager Thomas Tuchel is apparently interested in football national player Niklas Süle. As the Sport Bild reports, the central defender of record champion Bayern Munich is one of three candidates for the Blues’ defense centre. In addition, Chelsea Dayot Upamecano of RB Leipzig, which is also on the Munich side, and Bavaria’s David Alaba are on the bill. The latter is expected to leave Munich for the new season.
Süles contract at FC Bayern runs until 2022. According to Sport Bild, it is to be sold in the summer if a contract extension does not come about. The 25-year-old could well imagine a future in the English Premier League, the magazine reports. Süle – like Upamecano – is represented by the consultancy agency Sports360.
In addition to Bavaria and Chelsea, FC Liverpool is reportedly also interested in Upamecano, which can change until 2023 thanks to an exit clause. Last week, RB Managing Director Oliver Mintzlaff and Bavarian CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge had called about Upamecano. Alaba, whose contract is due to expire, had recently been associated with a change to Spain.
