(ANSA) – ROME, AUGUST 03 – “I give and ask for respect for all nationalities. As the captain of Senegal, I think it is not right to speak of an African national team like this. I respect what you think, if you believe that the team can play without Africans it’s his right. But I’m sure there are many people in Napoli who don’t think like him. I have great respect for the city and for the fans and I don’t think what De Laurentiis said is what the city of Naples thinks. , but it’s just an opinion “. The former Napoli defender, Kalidou Koulibaly responds thus, during his presentation at Chelsea, to the president of Napoli Aurelio De Laurentiis who last night live on Smart Talk, broadcast on Wall Street Italy, he said: “Enough Africans, if not they give up playing the African Cup. We pay the salaries to send them around to play for others “.
Koulibaly then also spoke about the Premier League and the new adventure that awaits him. “It’s true that the Premier League has wanted me for a long time. I believe in God and in these things, the time was now. Maybe no one was ready before and Napoli didn’t want me to come. I’m not a player who likes to fight with their club to leave. I have a lot of respect for the owner and for the fans but I think this time it was the right time to leave Napoli. ” On the choice of Chelsea he added: “” It was the only club that really wanted me to come. We had the first contact in 2016 when Antonio Conte came here and wanted me to come. It didn’t happen, but I’ve always been tied to Chelsea and this time the stars were well aligned. I am very happy to be here.
I am ready to give everything “. (ANSA).
