Leicester City are close to sealing a deal for Parma defender Woyo Coulibaly, with the transfer now 'in the details'.
That's according to journalist Gianluca di Marzio, who reports that Leicester have stolen a march on Fiorentina to secure the 25-year-old right-back.
He states that Coulibaly is 'close to saying goodbye' to Parma as they are negotiating a deal with Leicester for him. That negotiation is 'in the details' and seemingly at an advanced stage.
The journalist makes no mention of a fee or anything of that nature at this moment in time, simply stating that Leicester are in the final stages of a negotiation and an agreement is 'done. He likewise makes no mention of an agreement with the player at this stage.
What he does say is that Leicester have moved ahead of Fiorentina for the player. The Italian side had been eyeing him as a replacement for Michael Kayode if he departs this month.
Coulibaly, who can also play at left-back, has been with Parma since a €1.5m move from Le Havre in 2021 and has made 88 appearances for them since, with one goal and six assists to his name to date.
Leicester have been left short at right-back thanks to an injury to Ricardo Pereira and it seems they're now closing in on Coulibaly to add to their options.
