The one who was still considered one of the best defenders in the world a few years ago, is struggling to win in England despite a few brilliant strokes. Arrived last summer, Kalidou Koulibaly failed to convince. So much so that the Blues would already be ready to part with him, and an Italian club would be in on it.
Crossroads. Recruited from Naples against 38 million euros, Kalidou Koulibaly was expected to compensate for the departure to Real Madrid of Antonio Rudiger. But after more than fifteen matches in all competitions, the 31-year-old Senegalese international central defender, who has not truly won a starting place with Graham Potter, has not been able to convince either and has a mixed record.
Back to Italy?
And while the Blues, who would be on the track of Joško Gvardiol (RB Leipzig) and have just offered Benoît Badiashile (AS Monaco), want to strengthen themselves in this defensive sector, a departure from Kalidou Koulibaly during the winter transfer window would not be excluded, according to the English press. A situationtion which would have put some European teams on alert, including AC Milan which, according to All Web Marketwould be interested in the 2021 African champion.
