Chelsea have completed the signing of centre-back Kalidou Koulibaly on a four-year deal from Serie A side Napoli for a reported fee of £33.8million.
Romelu Lukaku alienated Chelsea fans from the moment that he gave his infamous Sky Italia interview in December.
Chelsea's transfer window is finally well underway. The addition of Raheem Sterling was a statement signing for Thomas Tuchel's squad and the German coach will be relieved to have a second player in the form of Kalidou Koulibaly arrive in the USA.
Chelsea have completed the signing of Senegal defender Kalidou Koulibaly from Napoli on a four-year contract, the Premier League club announced on Saturday.
Kalidou Koulibaly has joined Chelsea from Napoli in a €40million (£33.8m) deal.
With a new ownership group settling in, the departure of key senior players, and the rejumble of the Chelsea boardroom, it hasn't been a quiet summer at Cobham.
Senegal defender Kalidou Koulibaly from Napoli on a four-year contract, the Premier League club said on Saturday. British media reported that Chelsea paid a fee in the region of 32 million pounds ($37.93 million) for the 31-year-old, who becomes the London side's second summer signing after Raheem Sterling. "I'm very happy to be here with this team at Chelsea," Koulibaly said in a statement. "It's a big team in the world and my dream was always to play in the Premier League. "Chelsea came first to get me in 2016 but we didn't make it. Now when they came to me I accepted it because they really wanted me to come to the Premier League to play for them." Chelsea lost centre backs Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen earlier in the close season, and Koulibaly's addition will come as a boost for Thomas Tuchel's side as they look to close the gap on Manchester City and Liverpool.
"We are working on more numbers, everyone is wishing to have a complete team when they are in pre-season but it almost never happens. We are working and trying to be as fast and intense on it as possible but at the same time, we are relaxed knowing what we have to offer. At the same time, we're focused on the players that are here because that is in general what's most important."
