Kylian Mbappe faces an increasing uncertain future in the French capital with his contract at PSG expiring in 12-months
While Mbappe has previously suggested that it's his dream to play for Real Madrid, Stamford Bridge has been mooted as a potential destination this summer after fans spotted something in Nkunku's official announcement. To confirm the forward's move from RB Leipzig, the west London club posted a video compiling key moments in his career.
It begins by showing a picture of Nkunku as a child and his birthplace before transitioning into time at PSG. Then, a couple of images the Frenchman flash up alongside the Eiffel Tower and Les Parc des Princes.
One of which was a picture of Nkunku sharing a joke with Mbappe, which sent the Chelsea fanbase into a frenzy on social media. In jest, a few Blues fans screen-shotted the freeze-frame and shared it on Twitter, saying 'read between the lines'.
With that being said, football.london has taken a look at some of the reaction to the theories that Chelsea could sign Mbappe...
@CFC_Janty tweeted: "Read between the lines we are signing Mbappe next."
@CFCDubois tweeted: "Mbappe spotted twice in the Nkunku announcement? Don’t want to reach but it’s now quite clear he’ll be a Chelsea player."
@rxi_cfc tweeted: "He'll be joining us after next season when we win the league. Go back to this tweet in a year."
@ChelseaBase__ tweeted: "I’m praying it will happen."
However, not everybody was buying into the speculation. @losblancoszone replied: "Let it go bro he only wants Real Madrid, there's a higher chance of him rejecting Chelsea at this point."
@rodn3yb tweeted: "Mbappé wouldn’t go to a club that just finished 12th. Real Madrid is his next destination."
@AP_CFC21 tweeted: "Why do we need Mbappe. Lukaku and nkaku double pivot number 9s next season."
"Having played in Ligue 1 and the Bundesliga, I now want to play in the Premier League, one of the strongest leagues in the world. I am very excited for this challenge and will be proud to wear the Chelsea shirt."
