Sevilla's sporting director Ramon Monchi told why Andalusian defender Jules Cunde moved to Barcelona.
— Last Thursday, we verbally agreed with London Chelsea. The Londoners made a good offer, everything was agreed, but at one point Chelsea had certain doubts and the negotiation process was suspended.
Then "Barcelona" appeared. For the first time, they applied last Monday. Their offer was less than we wanted, but then the Catalans made every effort to sign the player.
Kunde agreed to move to Chelsea, he had an agreement with the Londoners. But the Blues have doubts that Kunde is not the player they are looking for. Later, Chelsea tried to return to the negotiating table, but Barcelona's offer was already better, Ramon Monchi said.
We will remind that on July 28, the Catalan "Barcelona" officially announced the signing of Jules Kunde. The amount of the transfer was 50 million euros. In addition, Sevilla will be able to earn another 5 million euros in bonuses.
