Chelsea hero Franck Leboeuf says Napoli defender Kalidou Koulibaly should choose Liverpool over Manchester United.

It has been claimed that an asking price in the region of £62m has been set by Napoli for the 28-year-old.

Leboeuf also that Virgil van Dijk would be the perfect centre-back partner for Koulibaly, should he decide to sign for the Reds.

“I would never ask him to go to Manchester United for many reasons, because I want him to win some stuff and I think Manchester United is not the club that they used to be and are not ready to win stuff,' Leboeuf told ESPN.

“I think Liverpool would be a good fit with [Virgil] van Dijk, that would be fantastic."
