 “We are waiting. Kounde is a great leader and a great player. Hopefully he shows it soon – tomorrow, if he can play. He has trained very well, I see him in good spirits, but we need to sell players to be able to register him” he added.

Chelsea is reportedly interested in striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, while Dutch forward Memphis Depay has also been linked with a move away from the Spanish club.
