Manchester United launch serious offer to sign Koulibaly

Manchester United are ready to show Napoli they are serious in their efforts to sign Kalidou Koulibaly by launching an incredible offer to sign the defender. According to France Football, United are ready to back caretaker boss Ole Gunnar Solsksjaer with hard ash and offer Napoli money they simply cannot afford to turn down for the 27-year-old defender. The report adds that while the capture of Koulibaly mid-season may seem a stretch, the world-record transfer €100m (£89.7m) offer for a defender would be enough to break Napoli’s resolve.
