TEAMtalk speculate that Sarri has told the Chelsea board that he wants the two Napoli players in a double-bid that could cost up to £130m.

Sarri believes that the additions of Koulibaly and Zielinski can ensure Chelsea can challenge on all fronts next season.

Both of these highly-rated players have been long-term targets for the Blues, with Sarri known to be huge a huge admirer of the duo.

Zielinski is also wanted by rivals Liverpool, with the Reds expected to try and get a deal agreed in January or the summer.

But Zielinski could be persuaded by Sarri, who he worked under at Empoli.

Sarri wanted to bring the Poland international to Stamford Bridge with him, but Napoli blocked any further transfer activity between the clubs, following the signing of Jorginho in the summer.
