Everton are reportedly eyeing to sign Napoli's centre-back Kalidou Koulibaly and reunite him with Carlo Ancelotti at the Goodison Park.
According to
Calciomercato, Napoli are claiming their valuation for Kalidou Koulibaly, with his world-record transfer fee likely to represent a remarkable amount of money to Everton's hopes of signing a man Carlo Ancelotti called the best in the world.
For all of Mason Holgate’s latest improvements, he is far from the finished article while Michael Keane and Yerry Mina remain as unstable as ever – despite the staggering £60 million outlay thought brought the English and Colombian internationals to Merseyside.

Gazzetta dello Sport reported in February that the Toffees were weighing up one of the most ambitious deals in the club’s history with Koulibaly, a powerhouse centre-half Ancelotti raved about during their time together at Napoli, in their sights.
However, Napoli chairman Aurelio de Laurentiis is not an easy man to negotiate with and Italy’s answer to Daniel Levy is unlikely to budge on the £130 million release clause that would make Koulibaly comfortably the most expensive defender of all time.
If Paris Saint-Germain are unwilling to pay such a fee, it doesn’t exactly seem likely that Everton would pay such a sum.
