Great, no-nonsense player – Agbonlahor reacts to Chelsea’s latest signing 

Former Aston Villa striker, Gabby Agbonlahor has reacted to the signing of Kalidou Koulibaly by Chelsea.

According to him, the Senegalese defender will prove to be a great signing for Chelsea despite the price.

All is set for the Blues to announce the signing of the 31-year-old defender, who is expected to pen a five-year deal.

Agbonlahor reckons Koulibaly is just what Chelsea need after letting Antonio Rudiger leave Old Trafford this summer, but has been left surprised by the price-tag.

“Koulibaly is a good signing for Chelsea Football Club,” he told talkSPORT

“I feel £35M for a 31 year…the price! But Chelsea needed to replace Rudiger.

“Chelsea needed a no-nonsense defender! Koulibaly is a great signing.”
