One of the most talked about speculations in recent days has been the transfer of Jules Kounde from Sevilla to the Chelsea team.

But, the agreement between the two clubs is now said to have failed after Chelsea refused to pay the compensation of 80 million euros for the French defender, KosovaPress reports.

The sporting director of Sevilla Monchi also spoke about Kounde’s situation, who made it clear that the Frenchman can leave only if the amount that the Sevilla club is asking for is paid.

“Jules Kounde has a chance to leave the club only if any interested club pays his release clause. “Chelsea made an offer last week but we did not like it,” said Monchi.

“If there is no offer with which we can invest well, then it will not be accepted. Kounde knows this and it is in professional terms he is fantastic. “August 20 was the last day for Kounde’s transfer chances, and on August 25 an offer arrived for him, an offer which we rejected,” added the sporting director of Sevilla.

Kounde’s release clause is in the region of the amount of 75 million euros to 80 million with bonuses. If this amount is not reached by the interested clubs, Sevilla does not intend to enter into negotiations.

Injaki Williams scored the only goal in the match in the last minutes, which gave Sevilla a strong blow in the fight for the title in Spain.

Sevilla was the first to get a chance to score. En Nesiri tried to head with a header in the 24th minute, but goalkeeper Unai Simon reacted.

Many more opportunities are seen below. At the very beginning of the second half, the players of Sevilla demanded from the referee to award a penalty for allegedly playing with his hand in the penalty area of ​​one of the players of the Basque team, but that did not happen.

Out of a total of 17 shots by Sevilla players, only three ended up within the goal. Bilbao did not threaten the rival in the same way, but that is why he was much more precise in those rare moments of danger. Accordingly, he won three points.

Sevilla, for which Gudelj did not play, has 70 points and is fourth on the table. Athletic Bilbao is ninth with 45 points.

Atletico did not manage to record a favorable result even after the national team break, but continued with the oscillations in the game.

This time, the “quilters” were left without a single point on the road in Seville.

The host missed the chance to take the lead from the penalty spot in the eighth minute, so they left without scoring goals at half time.

It was played in the 70th minute when Akunja shook the net of Jan Oblak and thus set the final 1: 0 for Sevilla.

Atletico remained at 66 points with a defeat, which is only three more than the second-placed Real.

Diego Simeone’s team must also watch out for Barcelona, ​​which, if they triumph over Valladolid on Monday, can approach only one point difference, and a couple of months ago, the point advantage was 12 in favor of Athletic.
