Christopher Nkunku shows what Chelsea can expect next season with a goal against Celtic as the RB Leipzig star also has a fine chip disallowed for offside
Chelsea fans will be rubbing their hands with Christopher Nkunku giving an electric start to RB Leipzig’s clash against Celtic.
Nkunku, who is believed to have undergone a medical ahead of a proposed move to Stamford Bridge this summer, put the German side ahead of Celtic in the Champions League group game.
The 24-year-old striker latched onto a through ball before rounding Hoops goalkeeper Joe Hart and sliding it into the net with his left foot.
Nkunku thought he opened the scoring earlier with a delicious chip on Hart, however, a VAR review showed the Frenchman was just offside in the build-up.
He nearly went provider just before the break as his outrageous assist found Timo Werner, however, the former Chelsea man couldn’t get the ball past Hart.
