Napoli defender, Kalidou Koulibaly has been having an amazing season in the Serie A so far this season and has caught the attention of the red half of Manchester.

The defender was always said to be Jose Mourinho’s his No.1 target for United but the Italians were looking for around £90m for the defender.

At 27 and with great pedigree in European football, the Senegal international could be the man United need to shore up their backline.

There are reports that Koulibaly could make a shock move to Man United when the transfer window opens in January being one of a number of names on United’s wishlist as they finally look to solve their defensive problems.

Marcos Rojo has been back to action in recent weeks but has never really won over the United faithful.
