Kalidou Koulibaly

[LAM09 6,744]

We would have to pay 40-50m and that's too much.

It says Napoli's asking price is €30m - http://weaintgotnohistory.sbnation.com/2016/6/1/11829820/chelsea-napoli-kalidou-koulibaly-30m-bid

Would be wary of offering much more.

No,it says Chelsea would offer 30m not that Napoli wants 30m.Koulibaly will probably cost around 40-50m.

It's says Napoli's asking price. Either way, I can't push a point based in a rumour. €40-50m for him would be excessive

DiMarzio didn't say that 30m was the asking price they just said that Chelsea would offer 30m.

DiMarzio said that Rudiger is our first choice and Repubblica.it (the most reliable source for Roma news) said that Rudiger is Conte first choice.

In the last hours Chelsea had a 30m euros plus bonuses offer rejected. Napoli want at least 40m euros.

In the last hours, Chelsea had a €30m+bonuses rejected by #Napoli for defender Koulbaly but De Laurentiis wants at least €40m. #CFC (fe.it)

As reported by Il Mattino , Chelsea will not let go on Koulibaly. Chelsea offered €21m that now reached €30m. (Mediaset) #CFC #Napoli

[manpe 10,861]

Shove €35m on the table and see what happens, the middle road compromise.

[Chelsea4 1,521]

Koulibaly is a great player but i think paying more than 30m is too much.

[Chelsea4 1,521]

Chelsea target Kalidou Koulibaly has rejected a new contract offer from Napoli.Chelsea are ready to submit a €30 million bid. (Steve Mitchell)

[petre.ispirescu 4,928]

£23m would be a steal. Hope Chelsea tapped him already.

Di_Marzio: Chelsea 'pressing' for Koulibaly

Quote

 

Good news if you're a fan of the impressive Kalidou Koulibaly, whose performances at Napoli have got many in Europe talking -- including Koulibably's agent who's apparently trying to negotiate a new contract wit the Partenopei.  Koulibaly's on ridiculously low wages when compared with other players possibly available on the market and thus could possibly be tempted by riches found elsewhere, even if those riches come without Champions League football for at least one season.

One of the clubs interested in taking home Koulibaly would be Conte's Chelsea [...] eventual offer would be of around 30 milllion plus bonus for Napoli. The Italians however would really like to keep Koulibaly, despite his contract renewal which has yet to arrive due to the player's high demands. Chelsea is pressing, Napoli resists, Koulibaly could be a blue next season.-source: Gianluca Di Marzio

Di Marzio is just about the only Italian source I trust with any level of confidence -- we're talking relative terms of course; transfer rumors are still just transfer rumors -- but this is promising news.Previous rumors claimed that Chelsea were mulling over and then "formalizing" a concrete offer for the 24-year-old massive, yet quite skilled center back.  Napoli's asking price was rumored to be €30m, which we would apparently meet and then throw in a few bonuses as well.  No messing about here, if true.

God I hope he signs for us... 

Koulibaly, Zouma, and Christensen (later on), will be quite solid if the latter two make the necessary jumps in their game to become Top Top CBs.
