Italian reports suggest Chelsea are preparing a new €55m (£47.8m) offer for Napoli defender Kalidou Koulibaly.
The Senegal international centre-back was already at the centre of a bidding war last season between Chelsea and Arsenal.
However, the Partenopei would not part with another of their big players after losing Gonzalo Higuain to Juventus for €90m.
According to Tuttomercatoweb, the situation has since changed and Napoli would be prepared to sell K2 for a huge transfer fee.

Chelsea and Antonio Conte continue to keep a close eye on Koulibaly and the price-tag is expected to be at €55m.
That would be £47.8m for the defender who turns 26 in June.
