Chelsea’s new signing, French attacker C. Nkunku, may see his first minutes on the pitch for the club, albeit in a limited capacity. Manager Mauricio Pochettino has indicated that Nkunku could play for about 20 minutes in the upcoming match. The priority for the team is to ensure that the player reaches full fitness and feels completely ready for the challenges ahead.
Pochettino Cautious with Nkunku’s Integration
Pochettino has expressed concerns about placing undue pressure on Nkunku following his arrival at Chelsea. The manager stressed the importance of giving the player sufficient time to adapt to the team’s dynamics and the intensity of the Premier League. He emphasized that while expectations are high, it is unrealistic to expect Nkunku to immediately carry the team to victory in every game.
Chelsea’s strategy is to gradually integrate Nkunku into the squad, ensuring he is not overwhelmed and can contribute effectively as he settles into his new role. The club and fans alike will be eager to see what the French forward can bring to the team as he gears up for his potential debut.
