Chelsea are finally about to land long-term defensive target Kalidou Koulibaly after many years of trying for the Napoli defender.
Koulibaly has been a cornerstone in the Naples defence for eight years now and during that long-term stay in southern Italy, there have been previous summer transfer windows whereby he has nearly left Serie A.
However, Napoli owner Aurelio De Laurentiis has always stood firm in demanding a huge transfer fee for the Africa Cup of Nations winner. However, with one year left on his contract, it seems as though it is time for his current club to cash in on a player who hasn't looked like signing a new deal for a while now.
