Chelsea’s top defender set to leave Stamford Bridge

Just after one season in the Premier League, Chelsea defender Kalidou Koulibaly could be heading back to Italy.

The former Napoli defender could be moving to Juventus, who are interested in signing him this summer, after a mixed campaign at Chelsea.

Koulibaly only joined Chelsea from Napoli last year for £33 million but has had a rollercoaster of a campaign at Stamford Bridge, going through patchy form throughout the season.

With the Blues set to miss out on European football next season, several players could exit from their already-bloated squad.

Chelsea recently appointed Frank Lampard on an interim basis to replace Graham Potter who was earlier shown the Stamford Bridge exit door. However, the Blues’ poor run of results continued.

According to Calcio Mercato, Juventus are interested in bringing Koulibaly back to Italy.

The Old Lady have had a terrible season and are set to invest heavily in their defence, where they are yet to truly replace Giorgio Chiellini and Matthijs de Ligt.
