Agent: 'Kalidou Koulibaly unlikely to join Juventus'

Representative Bruno Satin has suggested that Napoli defender Kalidou Koulibaly is unlikely to contemplate a move to Juventus.

Koulibaly has established himself as one of the top defenders in world football, and it has resulted in widespread interest in the centre-back.

Manchester United have been heavily linked with an approach and a switch to Old Trafford may appeal to the player, but the Senegalese's agent is less optimistic about Juventus winning the race for his signature.

Satin told Radio Kiss Kiss: "Koulibaly at Juventus? He's very close to Napoli, the club and above all to the city.

"I don't think he would ever betray them to go to Juventus, but let's not forget that they are professional players. If you have the chance to play on important stages, you listen, even if I repeat he is very close to Napoli."

Koulibaly has a contract at Napoli until 2023.
