Man City favourites to land Koulibaly
Napoli have decided to sell star centre-back
Napoli centre-back Kalidou Koulibaly is more likely to join Manchester City than Liverpool, according to Sunday Times reporter Duncan Castles.
Koulibaly's price tag has now dropped to £70 million ($87m) with the defender himself believing a move to the Etihad is more likely than a transfer to Anfield.

Arteta issues Guendouzi warning
Matteo Guendouzi must learn to conform to Arsenal's values after his latest brush with controversy as question marks surround his future at the club, Mikel Arteta has warned.
The midfielder was in the spotlight for the wrong reasons again on Saturday following an unsavoury incident with Neal Maupay, whose late goal earned Brighton victory over the Gunners.
Guendouzi appeared to grab Maupay, who had earlier clashed with Bernd Leno, by the throat and push him to the ground following the final whistle at the Amex Stadium, while it has also been reported that the former Lorient player was taunting the opposition.
