Koulibaly was Manchester City’s top target, but the club were left frustrated by Napoli’s demands and have turned their attention towards Atletico Madrid’s Jose Gimenez.

The 29-year-old defender could still leave the Serie A giants, with PSG tabling a bid worth €59m for him with Napoli.

According to Italian daily Tuttosport, De Laurentiis is still counting on Manchester City to return to the negotiations for Koulibaly.

The Napoli supremo resisting the temptation of accepting the offer from PSG for the defender in the ongoing transfer window.
