Napoli defender Kalidou Koulibaly believes his move to Chelsea is "on the right track" as a £34million deal is 'very close.'
Chelsea search for new defensive reinforcements has been a bit of a slow burner since the window opened on June 10. Initially, Jules Kounde seemed primed to get his long and eagerly anticipated move to the English capital. However, Marina Granovskaia's departure slowed that one down.
Then came Matthijs de Ligt and despite initial optimism that a big-money deal could be agreed with Juventus, it was revealed that his preference was a Bayern Munich transfer and since then, there has been no looking back as the Bavarians and the Old Lady are engrained in talks over a structure of the deal for the Dutchman.
