Jules Koundé has established himself this season as the best full-back in all of Europe and he has a contract with Barça until 2027. The plan is clear: renew him until 2030, but it won't be easy. His good performance has attracted the interest of several teams, which offer to multiply what the culer team paid for him at the time.
Sport has revealed that Chelsea is after Jules Koundé again and is coming for him with everything. Last season, they already considered signing him at Stamford Bridge, while next summer they will put a lot of money on the table. In total, the mentioned information points to a offer of 100 million euros to acquire the services of the French defender.
Barça, already in the 1:1 rule, considers that it doesn't have the requirement to part with its footballers, much less someone as important as Koundé. In this sense, it is considered in the blaugrana leadership that "he has no price"... and he is protected with a 1 billion euro clause, against which Chelsea can do nothing.
In any case, if Chelsea offers 100 million euros, it is expected that Jules Koundé won't even consider this possibility. The idea is to renew him in the coming months, trying to extend his contract until 2030. His salary would be higher and his enormous clause maintained.
Jules Koundé doesn't want to play at Chelsea: Only Barça
Although Chelsea's 100 million euro proposal may seem attractive, the reality is that Jules Koundé has no intention of considering it. He doesn't find it an attractive destination, especially due to the current sporting situation of the blue entity, and he is very happy at Barça.
There were moments when Koundé doubted his continuity at Barça. He arrived thinking he would be the starting center-back and ended up playing as a full-back, a position he didn't like much. However, his performance there has been very good, and he has accepted this role willingly, knowing that he stands out and is the best there.
He is happy in Catalonia, has no intention of moving, and looks favorably on his renewal with Barça. Chelsea knows they can offer 100 million euros for Jules Koundé, but neither party intends to accept this hefty proposal.
