Kalidou Koulibaly looks to be on his way to Chelsea, and as you might expect, Napoli owner Aurelio De Laurentiis isn’t happy about it.
He’s made it his business to stymie Chelsea’s every attempt to get the central defender over the years, but finally it’s out of his hands, and he’s not happy about it.
De Laurentiis was happy to break his team’s wage structure to keep the towering defender, who has become quite the icon for the Neapolitans in his time at the club.
But in the end Chelsea’s multi year offer has proved too tempting for the Senegal star.
Napoli owner Aurelio De Laurentiis is literally furious with Kalidou Koulibaly and his agent Fali Ramadani for deciding to leave the club for #Chelsea.

Radio Kiss Kiss – who despite the name are a serious operation down there – have today reported that the Napoli owner is “furious” about losing Koulibaly now.
Well, he has the power to turn down Chelsea’s offer, let’s not forget that. But he knows as well as anyone else that he’s getting exceptionally big money for a 31 year old, and there’s only so furious you can be when you consider that.
