Blues fans are convinced Kounde is better than Manchester United bound Raphael Varane

The Blues are finally making moves in the transfer market after news emerged that the Blues are looking into the possibility of signing French international Jules Kounde.
According to the transfer guru, Fabrizio Romano, Jules Kounde’s move is yet to be finalised, personal terms have reportedly been agreed and an agreement is close, meaning the transfer – rumoured to be in the region of £35million – is edging closer.
With that in mind, some Chelsea fans have compared the signings of Kounde and Varane, with most preferring Chelsea’s approach for a younger centre-back, especially considering they’ve already got Thiago Silva, who like Varane, is a veteran winner at the highest level. That being said, some are also still a little sceptical.

Take a look at what’s been said on Twitter:



@SW6Daily_ said: “We’re talking about the best young Cb in la liga last season.”
@CopraKai29 said: “The reason Real Madrid sold Varane was they wanted to sign Kounde.”
There’s no telling just yet who will have the bigger impact in the Premier League, but if one thing’s for certain, it’s that both signings are good ones on paper.
