29.07.2022 - 11:49 msn.com

The 23-year-old was expected to join Chelsea earlier in the transfer window, only for the La Liga giants to swoop in before the deal was completed.

Kounde is now set to join Barcelona after the club agreed a transfer fee with Sevilla. In his first interview with Barca TV, the player said: "I'm very proud and thankful for this opportunity.

I'm very excited because I'm arriving at a great club and a great team. Kounde spent three seasons at Sevilla where he made 133 competitive appearances and scored nine goals along the way.

Kounde is also a French international and helped the Les Bleus to a UEFA Nations League crown in 2020/21. He has made 11 appearances for France since his debut in 2021. READ MORE: Motherwell crash out of Europe at hands of Sligo Rovers
