SERIA DEFENDER AGENT HINT AT CHELSEA TRANFER

The agent of Napoli defender Kalidou Koulibaly has refused to rule out a potential move to Chelsea for the Seneglese defender this summer.

"Chelsea were interested but then they signed David Luiz and you also have John Terry and Gary Cahill at the club so there is a lot of competition there," Bruno Satin told Radio Kiss Kiss Napoli.

"So we will see what happens. A lot of the improvements that Koulibaly has made in his game has been down to the coaching of Maurizio Sarri.

"Whatever happens in the future will depend on the president  and whether or not he decides to evaluate any offers that may come in.

Antonio Conte was keen on bringing the 25 year-old to Stamford bridge last summer but Napoli where relunctantlet him leave for anything less than £60million.Chelsea ended up signing 29 year-old David Luiz for £34 million.

With John Terry set to leave at the end of the season, Chelsea are eager to freshen up their aging backline with Koulibaly remaining a top target.

The Senegal International penned a new contract in September which will keep him at the club until 2021.
