The truth about Barcelona's interest in Napoli defender Kalidou Koulibaly
The Catalans have tracked the Senegalese centre-back for years
Barcelona have been looking at Kalidou Koulibaly for a long time, even years. Sky Sports say that the Blaugrana will make an offer for the Napoli centre-back although for now all they have done is contract his agent to find the price of any potential negotiation and if it could be possible to include players in the deal.
The Senegalese defender ha a contract for a year more and there is debate over his renewal in Napoli. They think he’s a great defender, but is also a chance to make some money if they sell him.
The situation is similar to that of Fabian Ruiz, whom Real Madrid are interested in. There has been interest from Man City or PSG in him and their president Aurelio di Laurentiis would have liked 70m euros from the latter. From the former, he asked for 100m.
Barcelona have spoken to Fali Ramadani, his agent, to find out the player’s intentions.
