Report: Liverpool could offer £53m plus Origi in order to land 28-yr-old target
Liverpool have been linked with a move for the Napoli defender Kalidou Koulibaly for a while now. As per Napoli Magazine, the Reds are now prepared to submit an offer for the 28-year-old defender. The report claims that Liverpool would like to offer around €60m (£53m) and a player for the defender. It is believed that the player plus cash deal could involve Liverpool striker Divock Origi. Matip and Lovren are some of the other names mentioned in the report. The Belgian is not a key starter for Klopp and it wouldn’t be surprising to see him leave the club this summer. Origi has the talent to be a quality striker but he needs to join a club where he can play regularly. He has impressed during his cameos at Liverpool and he was instrumental to their Champions League win last season. It will b...
Manchester United favourites to sign 28-year-old Serie A star, could be available for £44m: report
Manchester United are regarded as the front-runners to land the signature of Napoli defender Kalidou Koulibaly with Paris Saint-Germain having ended their pursuit, Le Parisien claims. The Senegal international has spent nearly six seasons with Napoli and he has been a consistent performer at the heart of the defence, where he has made 233 appearances. The Serie A outfit have been reluctant to sanction his departure in recent seasons but their stance has changed with the genuine possibility that they will miss out on the Champions League next term. In such a case, the club’s hierarchy are likely to seek to lower their wage bill and Koulibaly is apparently one of the high-profile players, who could be sold at the end of the season. According to Le Parisien, Paris Saint-Germain and United hav...
Journalist claims Newcastle are in ‘pole position’ to sign £62m Liverpool target
For the past few years, Napoli defender Kalidou Koulibaly has been linked with a move to the Premier League. The 28-year-old centre-back is arguably one of the best defenders in the world and has been setting high standards in Serie A for the past few years. Liverpool and Manchester United are reportedly interested in signing the Senegal star who would cost in the region of £62m. Jurgen Klopp could be looking to sign a defender this summer especially with Dejan Lovren’s future in doubt. In theory, Koulibaly and Virgil van Dijk would form a great partnership at the back. However, according to journalist Paolo Esposito, Newcastle United are in ‘pole position’ to sign the Napoli defender. He claims that the Magpies have offered a better financial package to the centre-back than...
Di Marzio makes claim on £89m ‘great player’ Ancelotti wants at Everton
It felt really good yesterday that football is back finally. We don’t know whether we will see the return of the Premier League anytime soon. Till that time, let’s keep engaged with the daily dose of transfer drudgery. And that brings us to Everton’s interest in Kalidou Koulibaly. Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti needs to sign a central defender in the summer – or winter – or whenever, we don’t know yet. The likes of Yerry Mina or Michael Keane could be shown the door and a top-quality defender is needed as a replacement. While the likes of Lille’s Gabriel are being linked, Koulibaly would be one hell of a signing. Ancelotti knows him well from his time in Naples, and therefore the obvious connection. Widely regarded transfer guru Gianluca Di Marzio has claimed that the Toffees shoul...
Player thinks 2 reported targets would be ‘great’ for Newcastle United
Jonjo Shelvey has said on The Beautiful Game Podcast that Philippe Coutinho and Kalidou Koulibaly would be good signings for Newcastle United. According to Le10 Sport, Newcastle are interested in signing central defender Koulibaly from Italian club Napoli in the summer transfer window. Mundo Deportivo has claimed of interest in attacking midfielder Coutinho – currently on loan at Bayern Munich from Barcelona – from the Magpies. Newcastle midfielder Shelvey believes that if the Magpies are able to bring the Senegalese defender and the Brazilian attacker, then it would be great for the club. Shelvey (jokingly) said on The Beautiful Game Podcast when asked about Coutinho and Koulibaly: “I’m packing my suitcase ready to go. “If it does happen it would be great for the club, and we’d hopefully ...
Report: £70m player could be interested in Newcastle United transfer… on one condition
According to Sky Sports, Napoli central defender Kalidou Koulibaly could be interested in joining Newcastle United in the summer transfer window. It has been reported that Newcastle’s prospective new owners, Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, want to sign Koulibaly from Napoli this summer. The report has added that the Senegal international is likely to leave the Italian club at the end of the season and is valued at €80 million (£69.86 million).
