What happens if we miss out on Kounde and Kimpembe?

Probably panic and go back in for Aké for an even more stupid amount than the £45m we already offered before walking away.

I honestly feel like we can’t afford to miss out on Koundé now. He’s the best available for that RCB position. If it takes €65m so be it. We need to beat Barca to this signing.

Will be frustrating to lose out on Kounde to Barcelona if we're indeed after him but we could have tied this deal up if we wanted to weeks ago. He clearly wasn't a priority for Tuchel and the board, but does pose question marks over what now if he doesn't come.

I agree. I'm not sure if Koundé is worth 65m€ as I haven't watched him enough but the club have been after him a long time now it would be kind of stupid to miss out on him now. At the beginning of the summer we had a free run on Koundé and Barcelona wasn't even remotely in the picture, back then it would have been the easiest transfer to complete with the player desperate to join since last year and most of the negotiations between clubs already done last year so the price was more or less fixed too (even though Marina isn't in the picture anymore). 

 Boehly and Tuchel decided to target De Ligt / Aké instead and are now only after Koundé when other targets failed so if they miss out on Koundé as well, it's definitely not a good look.

Convert to back 4

I think this is what will likely happen if the club miss out on both Koundé and Kimpembe. Or they refuse Azpi's move and he will fill out the fifth CB position (KK, Silva, Chalobah, Colwill, Azpi).

If Nkunku repeats last season's output in 22/23 our chances of getting him will be virtually non existent. We'd have to do something spectacular like win the Champions League to even put ourselves in the frame. The usual suspects will all be in for him and one of them will get him.

The harsh reality, unfortunately.

The same could probably be said about Gvardiol too, unless we manage to get some agreement in place.
