Koulibaly urging Chelsea teammate Lukaku to join him in Saudi Arabia

Chelsea defender Kalidou Koulibaly is trying to entice Romelu Lukaku to join him in Saudi Arabia.

Koulibaly, who moved to Chelsea a year ago from Napoli, is close to signing for Al Hilal in the Saudi Pro League.

Per Gazzetta dello Sport, Koulibaly felt the financials on offer were too good to turn down.

He is now looking to convince Lukaku, who spent last year on loan at Inter Milan, to join him.

However, the Belgian is thought to be more interested in remaining in European football for the time being.

He believes that he can still play at the highest level and is discussing a move to AC Milan.
