World class star confirms he is in talks to sign with Chelsea
Napoli defender Kalidou Koulibaly has confirmed that he is in talks with Chelsea over a possible move to the Premier League
With the club desperate to add to that back-line over the next few weeks – the club have now started working on a number of deals that will see players FINALLY make a move to London
And one of those players has been Koulibaly – the Napoli star that is rated as one of the best in world football and a defender that Chelsea have been keen on for some time now
Rumours surfaced just 24 hours ago that we have contacted the players representatives of Koulibaly about a move to Stamford Bridge – and it seems that things are on the right transfer after the player confirmed that talks are in progress
Journalist Romain Collet-Gaudin has quoted Koulibaly as saying: ‘I’ll confirm that [the transfer] later, but it’s on the right track.’
Napoli boss Luciano Spalletti has also addressed Koulibaly’s potential exit, saying during a fan Q&A on Instagram: ‘I prefer Koulibaly to be with us always, especially as he would be captain this season.
‘If he chooses to leave, we will never stop thanking him for all the help he has given us. If he wants to choose something else, we wish him all the best, because he deserves it.’
The club will hope to wrap up a deal for Koulibaly by the end of the week and will then move to add a new central defender to partner the star
