Kounde for me is the most future center-back in world football. He is only 22 years old and has been playing in the elite since he was 17. He started as a right-back but went on to play as a center-back in the second year at Girondins. Sevilla FC bet on him with 20 years paying € 25M (most expensive transfer in our history).
Jules Koundé is 1'78 tall but reaches unexpected places. Seeing him jump is a real spectacle. The taller the striker, the bigger he becomes in the passing game. The secret is in his lower body and an explosive physique. His height is not a problem for his game. But he is also very good with his feet. For Tuchel's scheme of 3 centrals it is ideal due to that versatility to play as a winger. Koundé is a player who trusts in his speed, able to wait for the striker, and react immediately.
The team that signed Kounde signs a center-back for 10 years. For me if he is worth € 70M. For its age and quality it is worth it. For us it would be a great loss.
