Barca affirm internal discussions months after Chelsea transfer heist
Jules Kounde: As Chelsea is reportedly interested in a summer transfer, Barcelona confirms internal discussions
Apparently unsatisfied with his present position at Camp Nou is a French international
After spending the most of his career as a central defender, Kounde is said to be dissatisfied with his position as a right-back.
Last summer, Chelsea was on the verge of signing the 24-year-old defender for £55 million after expressing a keen interest in him.
Despite a background of financial uncertainty, Barca stole the deal amid a frenetic summer of activity.
A move to Stamford Bridge has once again been linked to Kounde ahead of what seems to be another hectic transfer season.
According to Alemany, "These are internal issues that we will resolve internally."
Following the club's disastrous season, Mauricio Pochettino is anticipated to be named as the third head coach of the organisation during the Boehly-Clearlake Capital period.
In order to get a significant improvement out of the team, the Argentine may decide to revamp Chelsea.
Speaking on Jules Kounde's future at the club, Barcelona's sports director Mateu Alemany said it would be "resolved internally."
The LaLiga winners just acquired the French international last summer from Sevilla, and he has apparently requested to depart.
