🇸🇳 Kalidou Koulibaly

I agree, but I'm talking strictly about Chelsea here. I don't think Kalidou himself will pick Everton over Chelsea (don't believe they're offering him better wages than we are). Also, who's to say there's a bidding war going on anyway? Sometimes agents spread rumors themselves to make things go their way. If Everton turn this into a bidding war, then good on them, we can move on and find another target. If they decide to pay more than our 38M it means they're willing to pay almost as much  for a defender than what they're supposedly getting for Stones. It doesn't look to me they're be willing to do that. They prefer to invest in players they can develop instead of breaking club fee records

Thing is if they get 50 million pounds for Stones, they wouldn't mind spending 40 on a guy that's physically stronger and has more experience of leading the line, and still pocket change of 10 million. 

 

He wouldn't choose Everton over us, but Napoli can choose their bid over us if their bid is higher. They can reject ours and accept Everton's.

I read that koulibaly  can play right back and midfield as well very useful player to have especially when you have injuries in your team

In that scenario the player would also have to agree terms with Everton for a transfer to go through. It's entirely possible Everton would withdraw their bid if the player or his representatives told them he didn't want to sign. At the end of the day we just have to wait it out and hope our board can get the job done.

The one negative of getting him would be he goes to the ACON and could end up missing our trip to Anfield and home match vs Arsenal.

Of course the pros well and truly overide that, just putting it out there.

He well could, but if they offer him high wages and a starting spot then I don't see a reason why he wouldn't want to move. Usually they do.

If he was confident that Napoli would accept our bid if Everton were out of the picture, or had assurances from our board that we would match Everton's bid, then he might. I would be surprised if there weren't backdoor deals between buying clubs and players done on the regular in an effort to limit transfer fees.

Keep in mind people: Napoli have almost signed Arek Milik from Ajax for 35 million euro's. They still want Icardi if reports are right. They will have to pay huge money for him which they can also finance with the Koulibaly transfer money. 

Don't think Inter will let Icardi go as that will also cause a meltdown at the Inter fan base just like when Higuain left Napoli for Juve. But that's not my concern.

According to @repubblicait Chelsea have an agreement with Koulibaly for €4.5m a season. Napoli will grant his wish and sell him for €45m.

Chelsea are still waiting for a response from Napoli on their £38m bid for Senegalese centre-back Kalidou Koulibaly, according to Sky sources.

However, Napoli have told our colleagues at Sky in Italy that the player is not for sale.

That sucks. 

If Napoli don't want to sell we need to move on. 

Maybe next year if we still need can come and get him.

They said the same thing about Higuain and then they sold him.
