Former Chelsea defender, William Gallas has explained why centre-back. Kalidou Koulibaly has struggled in his first season at Chelsea so far.
Koulibaly established himself as one of the best defenders in Europe during his eight-year stint at Napoli. But things have not gone to plan for the Senegal international following a £33million move to Chelsea last summer.And Gallas believes Koulibaly is struggling at Chelsea because it’s a different league and style.
“Kalidou Koulibaly is struggling at Chelsea because it’s a different league and style,” Gallas told Genting Casino.“Your teammates are different. You aren’t the best defender in your team. In Napoli, he was the best defender, at Chelsea, it’s different. “You aren’t the main guy, so you’ve got to adapt. In my opinion, when you’re coming from another league, you need at least one year to adapt, especially if you’ve family. So you need to adapt,” he said.
