Kounde has been left furious with Sevilla
According to reports, Jules Kounde is angry with Sevilla for preventing his transfer to Chelsea and now does not respond to calls from Julen Lopetegui and Monchi.
Chelsea's offer for the Sevilla defender was £47m, but the Spanish side did not listen to any offer less than the player's release clause. Monchi recently revealed that Kounde turned down several offers - one of which was from Tottenham - but Chelsea were the club he wanted to go to. However, the Blues eventually fell short in the negotiations.
“
Most of [the approaches were] rejected by the player himself but there was a club that he liked, which was Chelsea,
" Monchi said.
"The first and only formal offer was last Wednesday, around five in the afternoon, with an amount that did not satisfy our desires and conditional on Chelsea selling a player.
“It was an important offer, considering the current world where there are so many hardships, but it did not meet our demands, conditions, or quantities.
"I spoke to the player’s agent some time ago because the more time that passed, the more difficult it would be for him to leave. We put as a deadline the 20th, and we extended that to the 25th.
"We responded with a counter-offer with a deadline of last Friday night (the 27th) and they have not responded. Since then there has been no contact. Chelsea’s formal offer, Sevilla’s formal response, but nothing else.”
