Jules Kounde linked with Bayern and Chelsea ahead of January

French defender Jules Kounde could leave FC Barcelona as early as January. Per TuttoMercatoWeb, several important clubs have shown interest in recent weeks, mainly Bayern Munich and Chelsea, who already tried to sign him in 2022.
Hansi Flick has preferred other options at times this season, with Gerard Martín among them. Even so, in the last two matches Kounde registered an assist and a goal, and the coach's trust in him has reportedly returned almost unchanged.
An ankle sprain picked up in the Barcelona-Betis match has kept him out for the last five games, including today's clash between France and Italy. His return is expected very soon. He turns 28 today.
