'I can confirm later, but it is on the right track.' Reports claim Chelsea are offering the 31-year-old €8m per season plus €1m in bonuses – €3m more than the wages Napoli were proposing. CFC
Koulibaly confirms €40m Chelsea transfer ‘on right track’ as Blues ‘interested in’ further CB trioNapoli star Kalidou Koulibaly confirmed his €40m transfer to Chelsea “is on the right track” when asked about a move to Stamford Bridge.
The centre-back was due to report for Napoli’s pre-season training camp in Dimaro on Tuesday evening, but there are now suggestions that talks over his move to west London are moving at such a pace that he may not show up at all.The Blues are looking to replace Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen who they lost on free transfers this summer to Real Madrid and Barcelona respectively.
Koulibaly moved to Napoli from Genk in 2014 in a £6.5m deal and has spent the last eight seasons marshalling the Serie A club’s backline. The Senegal international has won a Coppa Italia and a Supercoppa Italia during that time and has scored 14 goals in 317 appearances. And now it looks like he will have a chance of a new challenge this summer after years of rumours that he could leave Napoli for the Premier League.
