Chelsea given potential boost in pursuit of Koulibaly and Insigne

Chelsea have been given a potential boost in their pursuit of Napoli duo Kalidou Koulibaly and Lorenzo Insigne.

According to the Daily Mail, via The BBC, Napoli will not force the pair to stay if they decide that they want to move on to pastures new. 

The report claims that Chelsea are interested, along with Liverpool, in signing Insigne this summer. Koulibaly has also been linked to Chelsea earlier this year, as they look to sign a central defender ahead of next season.

Chelsea, however, are still facing an uncertain summer. They have been hit with a two-window transfer ban by FIFA, with Chelsea still hoping that they are able to sign players in the next transfer window.

If they are, then this news will come as a massive boost to Maurizio Sarri as he looks to bolster his squad and push on next season – having worked with Koulibaly and Insigne at Napoli.
