Napoli star Kalidou Koulibaly has decided his time at the club is over, and is ready to move on with his career as he’s reportedly heading to Chelsea, according to Mirror.
The Senegalese center-back has failed to reach an agreement over a new contract with the Serie A side, and Chelsea as the highest bidder is closing in a £30million move for him.
After Italy’s frustrating exit from Euro 2016, Antonio Conte is set to take over at Chelsea, where he’s desired to build his team around the 25-year-old comet.
The Blues are taking a huge leap over the London rivals Arsenal, who were also keen on Koulibaly.
Once the player agrees a severance package with Napoli, the deal is bound to go through and Chelsea are closing in on their second signing of the summer.
Chelsea have been trying to force the deal go through since May, but following major difficulties over picture rights, the club president Aurelio De Laurentiis has done his best to try and pull the plug on the move.
But the player has his future set for Chelsea, as the interest from Gunners and other Premier League sides emerged too late.
