Gunners defender Papastathopoulos is believed to have a deal with the Italian club, but the deal hinges on Koulibaly’s next move.
The sought-after Frenchman has been courted by Manchester City all summer, but the Premier League team has yet to reach Napoli’s asking price. Koulibaly’s agent is believed to act as a mediator in an effort to push the transfer over the line, but that leaves Papastathopoulos in limbo.
The 32-year-old is aware of the situation and is talking to Arsenal bosses in the meantime, although he is eager for the Gunners to let him go on a free transfer despite having a year left on his contract.
However, should Koulibaly move to City, Arsenal will certainly want to recoup some of the £ 17.6 million they spent on Papastathopoulos in 2018.

Ronald Koeman has made it clear which players he would like to keep and those he thinks need to find new clubs.
And unfortunately for Alena and Pedri, since Puig has already been told he has no future with the Dutchman, Koeman doesn’t feel like any of the players are ready to play every week. Instead, Koeman is willing to let them find new clubs in an effort to get the experience they feel they need, either on loan or in permanent arrangements.
Both players are seen as having great potential, but with Barca looking to raise some much-needed transfer funds before the transfer window is up, the club is looking to optimize the squad before making their own new additions.
Both players would like to fight for their places, but that seems unlikely.

Mendy moves to Chelsea almost ready
Following rumors on Saturday that Chelsea had reached an agreement to bring in the goalkeeper Edouard mendy to Stamford Bridge, the Blues are now reportedly hoping to introduce Mendy this week, immediately after Kepa ArrizabalagaHorror show against Liverpool on Sunday afternoon.
Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano reports that a deal has been made between the Blues and French club Rennes, and that the move will be announced before Chelsea’s next league game at the weekend.
Frank Lampard will be looking forward to bringing Mendy to the club after another disappointing performance by Arrizabalaga. The Spaniard failed to clear his lines in Chelsea’s 2-0 loss to Liverpool at Stamford Bridge, instead gifting the ball to Sadio Mane, who scored his second of the game.
Arrizabalaga has been unable to establish himself in West London and Lampard was increasingly looking to use Willy Caballero between suits, and is now eager to secure a long-term replacement.

Liverpool also seeks to allow Divock Origi, Marko Grucic and Harry wilson leave.
– Rennes and Napoli have contacted Barcelona about the future of Jean-Clair Todibo, according to Footmercato.

Marseille had expressed interest in Todibo early in the transfer window, but it looks like Ligue 1 Rennes, who are desperate for a defender, could lead the way. Barça expected to get 25 million euros for their man.
