Defender Kalidou Koulibaly says that his only focus is on 'winning' with Napoli, rather than looking for a transfer to another top European club.

Napoli defender Kalidou Koulibaly has played down the possibility of a future transfer to Manchester United.

Having impressed during his time in Naples, Koulibaly has been frequently linked with a move to another top European club, including the Premier League giants.

However, while on international duty with Senegal, the centre-back has insisted that his only focus is on trying to win Serie A with his current team.

Koulibaly told reporters: "I'm used to it. So many stories come out each day, which say I'm leaving. Right now, my only objective is to win with Napoli. I don't care about the rest.

"Our objective remains to beat the best teams in Italy and win the Scudetto. This season is more difficult because all the teams have got stronger and Serie A has become more competitive."

Koulibaly still has just under four years remaining on his contract.
