Napoli are preparing a replacement just in case Koulibaly were to leave. Two names are on their list: Hincapiè, who was close to the Partenopei last summer before moving to Bayer Leverkusen, and Fenerbache's Kim. The Korean defender is also drawn interest from Rennes.
Even though his contract expired on June 30, Dries Mertens doesn't want to leave and he is waiting for an eventual signal from the Azzurri.
