Newcastle ready to submit offer for Kalidou Koulibaly
Newcastle have been linked with a move for the Napoli defender Kalidou Koulibaly.
The 28-year-old Senegalese is expected to leave the Serie A giants this summer and journalist Fabio Santini (via Sportwitness) claims that the Magpies are willing to submit a ‘super offer’ to sign him.
Koulibaly is one of the best defenders in the world and he would be a tremendous signing for Newcastle if they manage to get it done.
The Magpies need to tighten up at the back next season and Koulibaly could partner Schar/Lascelles at the back. He will add presence and composure to the backline.
Koulibaly is an excellent reader of the game as well. He could be a Van Dijk-esque signing for the Magpies.
