Tottenham Hotspur 'to rival Liverpool, Manchester United for Kalidou Koulibaly'

Tottenham Hotspur are the latest Premier League side to show an interest in Napoli centre-back Kalidou Koulibaly, according to a report.

The Senegalese defender is valued at £89m by Napoli chairman Aurelio De Laurentiis, despite a mixed 2019-20 campaign before the coronavirus pandemic brought a halt to the season.

Manchester United have been regularly linked with Koulibaly in recent years, with Jose Mourinho in particular desperate to sign him during his time at Old Trafford.

Fellow Premier League side Liverpool have been tipped to move for the 28-year-old this summer, meanwhile, as they look to bolster their defensive options.

According to Il Mattino, a switch to Tottenham - where Mourinho is now in charge - is also a real possibility for Koulibaly.

The report indicates that Napoli may consider a player-plus-cash offer, with outright big-money deals less likely this year in the wake of the coronavirus crisis.
