Parma double deal: Coulibaly to Leicester, Vogliacco from Genoa | OneFootball

Parma are on the verge of a double deal, selling Woyo Coulibaly to Leicester City and bringing in Alessandro Vogliacco from Genoa, while also talking to Michael Kayode of Fiorentina.

According to Sky Sport Italia transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio, the Ducali are progressing rapidly in their negotiations to revamp the squad after a difficult first half to the season on their return to Serie A.

The exit of right-back Coulibaly to Leicester City is said to be down to the details for a permanent transfer.

His contract with Parma was only set to run until June 30 and he leaves after almost four years at the Stadio Tardini.

Meanwhile, the club has also secured the arrival of central defender Vogliacco from Genoa.

This is likely to be a loan deal with option to buy at the end of the season.

It leaves Parma needing a new right-back and there has already been talk of a possible loan agreement with Fiorentina for Italy Under-21 international Kayode.

There had also been suggestions Coulibaly could go to Fiorentina in exchange for Kayode, but Leicester City stepped in.
