Napoli star Kalidou Koulibaly wanted by Chelsea

Napoli centre-back Kalidou Koulibaly is being linked with a move to the Premier League, with Chelsea, Manchester United and Arsenal all interested in signing the Senegal international but the arrival of Carlo Ancelotti as the Napoli boss may just keep the rock-solid defender at the San Paolo for another season, as reported in Italy.

The defender admitted that he is happy in Naples and he’s in no rush to make a move. He also spoke about the summer and said the only thing he’s focusing on is the upcoming World Cup in Russia.

I arrived at Napoli in the right moment of my career. Napoli fans are amazing and people stop me in the middle of the street to ask me if we will win the next game. If somebody wants to know what enthusiasm means should come to Naples. I don’t know how much I am worth, 120, 150, 60, I don’t know but these things always make me smile. It means that hard work leads to results, Napoli take care of me and it’s better to be loved rather than hated. I am ok, my family is happy and my parents are happy to see me there. Let’s see what happens in the future. I am looking forward to play the World Cup, it’s a dream come true.

matchday.
