Jules Kooundé could go to Manchester City Guardiola, but the Seville
He rejected an offer of 55 million euros and his future is still linked to Sánchez Pizjuán. The young French defender has been in the news these days, since last Monday he gave the victory to the Gala Under-21 team with a goal against Slovakia (1-0) and acknowledges that he would have liked to give the jump to a Premier League team , but that he is not in a hurry and that he is very comfortable at Sevilla, with whom he has a contract until 2024.
“It is part of my progression and I am doing everything I can to make it happen. He was obviously happy (for the possibility of going to City). It would have been a good opportunity, but I'm in Seville and I'm very happy there, “said the player in a statement to” Canal Plus France. “
Koundé came to Sevilla as a strong bet for Monchi, since he paid more than 20 million euros to Girondins de Bordeaux for a player of just 20 years. However, after some hesitation, the French defender has been one of the great protagonists of the season together with Diego Carlos and also in the transfer market due to rumors about his future and the entity of the teams that have been interested in him.
With a clause that is close to 90 million euros, Sevilla are now studying with more tranquility to renew their contract and match their salary to the important players in the squad. The player's predisposition and the commitment he has shown is one of the issues that has encouraged Sevilla to make this gesture, since he values the fact that Koundé has not pushed to leave despite the important offers he had to improve.
