According to Fussball Transfers in Germany, the Reds are interested in signing the France international from the Bundesliga alongside Jude Bellingham.
Liverpool, on the other hand, will have to look elsewhere for attacking reinforcements.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Chelsea has now officially completed the signing of Nkunku.
The Blues have agreed to terms with the Frenchman until July 2023.

Although Romano does not mention a figure, the Guardian believes Chelsea beat Liverpool to the transaction because they paid slightly more than his £52 million release clause.
Below is a complete transcript of what the dependable Italian journalist tweeted.
Nkunku joins Chelsea after a remarkable 2021/22 season in which he scored 35 goals and supplied 20 assists in 52 appearances for RB Leipzig.
This season, the 25-year-old has 17 goals in 23 games, earning him a call-up to France’s World Cup roster.

Unfortunately, Nkunku was forced to retire after injuring his knee just before the competition began, and if France defeats Argentina in the World Cup final on Sunday, he would be crushed.
Chelsea needed this signing since Graham Potter recently lost Armando Broja for up to a year after the Albanian injured his anterior cruciate ligament in a friendly against Aston Villa.
