Kalidou Koulibaly has experienced a wide range of cultures in his lifetime and even in his footballing career.
The 31-year-old, who signed for Chelsea in mid-July from Napoli for around £33million, was born in Saint-Die-des-Vosges in the north east of France. Koulibaly then came through the academy at Saint-Die before switching to fellow French club Metz, where he made his professional debut in 2009.
Belgian side Genk then took a gamble on the new Chelsea centre-back and he spent two years at the Luminus Arena, before switching to Napoli in 2014. It was in Naples where he really made a name for himself.
