Kalidou Koulibaly's next destination is the Premier League as clubs seek the signature of the Senegalese.

Manchester United and Liverpool have pulled out of the race following the player’s €80m buyout clause which is too big to be satisfied in such a frustrating market meddled by coronavirus.

Manchester City are the favorites to land the 29-year old to bolster the backline of Pep Guardiola’s team.

According to Sky Sports Gianluca Di Marzio, the African could leave the Serie A club but not at the price cuffed on him.

"He could leave Napoli,” he said during the lowdown on all the latest biggest transfer news o Sky Sports.

“I think not at the price that the Napoli chairman wants to get, nobody will pay the €80-90m he wants for Koulibaly, the most interested club in England is Manchester City, but the feeling is the relationship between them and Napoli is not good - you may remember the Jorginho affair.

"Napoli will have to ask for less money, or it will be difficult for Koulibaly to move on."

Pep has already signed Nathan Ake of Bournemouth for a reported £41m and Koulibaly’s addition would resolve the defensive blunders committed by his center pair.

Manchester City were eliminated from the Champions League quarterfinals after failing to keep their defense intact in search of a winning goal.
