Christopher Nkunku is finding ways to stay occupied during the international break while eagerly awaiting his Chelsea debut.
Since the 4-4 draw against Manchester City, the 26-year-old celebrated his birthday and eyes a competitive debut before the new year.
We had some conversation, and he said to me, ‘I want to be ready for after the international break, Newcastle,'” shared Mauricio Pochettino.

However, Nkunku’s return for the November 25 game against Newcastle might be too soon, with a Carabao Cup tie against Eddie Howe’s side in late December.
In a subsequent story post, it’s disclosed that Nkunku emerged victorious, successfully pressing 51 accurate reaction buttons on the ground while maintaining a side-plank position with elevated feet on an exercise ball, thereby keeping his body suspended.
This lighthearted achievement adds to the positive signs for Nkunku as he readies himself for a return to the field.Back on the training field at Cobham, Nkunku engages in challenges promoted by his personal trainer, adding a playful touch.
Recently, a challenge involving PSG’s Colin Dagba and Liverpool’s Ibrahima Konate was featured on Instagram. Despite not establishing himself in the national team, Nkunku, eager for his Chelsea debut, aims to make his mark in the upcoming matches.
