Chelsea defender Kalidou Koulibaly has paid tribute to former manager Thomas Tuchel.
Koulibaly has revealed Tuchel was keen on him at PSG.
In an interview with Bein Sport, the 31-year-old central defender said: “I had the chance to play against him.
"There was a Napoli-PSG when he was in Paris. And we had two draws. After the match, we spoke and he congratulated me. He told me I was a great player. Subsequently, he tried to recruit me to PSG.
"It didn't happen, but at Chelsea it did. He was really enthusiastic and I too was happy to work with him. It's a shame it didn't last very long. But he was very important in my arrival at Chelsea and I have to thank him."

potter hasn't failed us Chelsea fans to used to immediate wins and trophies which is why tuchel got kicked at first but potter was brought in to help the younglings which is most overlooked by us fans and Is part of the reason tuchel was removed bco5he didn't want to buy anybody. At first I know if seemed like potter didn't have tactics but after the bvb match (which we dominated) u can see what he's trying to do our only problem now is finishing which can be solved in due time so at the I say POTTER STAY!!!!
