Despite what appears to be a pretty successful summer of transfer dealings for us so far, we may have suffered a setback regarding one of our key targets.
What’s the word?
We have been chasing the Kalidou Koulibaly all summer as we continue to look for a replacement for Vincent Kompany, who left to join his boyhood club Anderlecht last summer.
The fact that Pep Guardiola did not replace him was part of the reason why we finished 18 points behind Liverpool in the Premier League table last season, but we have been actively scouting the Senegalese defender all summer.
