Christopher Nkunku

Nkunku has made three appearances (one start, two as substitute) and scored one goal in the 2026–27 Bundesliga, with zero yellow cards and zero red cards – an early-season pattern consistent with a rotational striker role who contributes when introduced from the bench.

Nkunku is 28 and plays as a striker for RB Leipzig. His senior path runs from Paris Saint-Germain through a breakthrough spell at RB Leipzig to a high-value move to Chelsea in July 2023 and a subsequent transfer to AC Milan, followed by a loan return to RB Leipzig in August 2026; his goal totals peaked in the 2021–22 season with 20 goals and remained strong in 2022–23 with 16 goals before lower tallies in later seasons.

Nkunku moved from Paris Saint-Germain to RB Leipzig for €12,000,000 in July 2019, was sold to Chelsea for €52,000,000 in July 2023, transferred to AC Milan for €32,000,000 in August 2025 and returned to RB Leipzig on loan in August 2026 – a sequence that peaked in transfer fee value in 2023 and was followed by a lower fee and a loan move.
