FC Barcelona join Chelsea in race to sign Napoli defender Koulibaly

Cataln newspaper Sport reports that FC Barcelona are planning to sign two central defenders of which Napoli's Kalidou Koulibaly is allegedly one of the names on that list.

The Spanish club is currently observing and following the player closely but Blaugrana President Bartomeu is aware that it will take a big offer to get Napoli to part ways with the player given that his current contract with the Partenopei expires at the end of June 2021. 

FC Barcelona know that they must act quickly given interest shown in the player by Chelsea as well as Juventus this past summer where the Bianconeri had identified Koulibaly as the perfect replacement to Leonardo Bonucci, Sport reports.
