Napoli president Aurelio de Laurentiis has admitted why he decided to sell defender Kalida Koulibaly to Chelsea.
"I let him go because he really wanted it. "Barcelona" approached us, but it had no money, it is in debt. Then came Chelsea and we just couldn't refuse a player like Koulibaly. Although I did not want to sell it and offered 6 million euros per year.
But if a football player seeks to gain new experience in a prestigious club, in the best world championship, it remains to remember what this player has done for the team," said the president on Kiss Kiss Napoli radio.
