Kalidou Koulibaly is a Chelsea player. The west London club have officially announced the arrival of the Senegalese defender from Napoli in a deal believed to be worth around £31 million.
Koulibaly’s signing will certainly strengthen Chelsea going into the 2022/23 season and should make the club’s fans forget about Antonio Rudiger’s departure.
